Cheese doesen't work, skype does with my cam

Hi.

I would like to ask for Your help. I have Logitech C270 cam but it doesen't work with cheese and camorama. Cam works in skype and in gstreamer-properties.

As soon as i start cheese i have the following output:

Code:
firekage@deusex:~$ cheese

(cheese:19671): Gtk-WARNING **: Attempting to add a widget with type GtkImage to a GtkToggleButton, but as a GtkBin subclass a GtkToggleButton can only contain one widget at a time; it already contains a widget of type GtkLabel

The one that is bolded in english should be like: segmentation fault. Cheese with Ubuntu 12.04 upgraded fro 11.10 doesen't start at all even when i try to run it from terminal.


As soon as i start camorama i have following output:

Code:
firekage@deusex:~$ camorama

(camorama:26644): Gtk-WARNING **: GtkSpinButton: setting an adjustment with non-zero page size is deprecated
I see control panels from camorama but there is no video, no sound.

Guvcview doesen's show at all, like cheese, and there is segmentation fault again - bolded one.


My camera works in gstreamer-properties, works in skype but i would like to have the ability of recording by 3-rd party software and be able to use it freely, not when i use skype as a skype chat cam.

Could you help me?

My internet cam is Logitech C270 and when i put lsusb in terminal i see it:

Code:

Those problems have, I think, been solved some time ago. Have you done an update recently? (My "cheese" is version 3.4.2, on Fedora 17, and works with no error or warning messages - except for a depreciated function call when invoked with the -v argument.
Code:
$ cheese -v
** Message: pygobject_register_sinkfunc is deprecated (GstObject)
** Message: pygobject_register_sinkfunc is deprecated (GstObject)
cheese 3.4.2
$ cheese
