Re: Camera broken / black screen
 
Yeah I'm not sure how could it be directly affected though I'm just guessing either the camera drivers compiled lacked something or it could just be fcam.

power kernel beyond 42 can be found in extras-devel (Warning: It may cause you to lose your hair).

Re: Camera broken / black screen
 
Does anyone know what causes this? I have this same problem. It started when I updated the last time I think it was modrana, open media, espeak and smscon.

I dont know how any of those programs would affect the camera though. I have tried removing them and rolling the camera back to the original

Code:

apt-get install --reinstall camera-ui=1.1.29.1+0m5
and still doesnt work. Im using cssu testing, power 50

any ideas?
