Have you by any chance installed BlessN900? I had a similar problem, although I installed it after kernel-power. BlessN900 replaces the camera driver which is incompatible with kernel-power. It is a known problem. See e.g. this thread, which also contains a fix.

Any other non-stock camera application?
Still might be worth reinstalling the fcam driver as per this post.

Yeah, I don't know what that URL is about. I referred to the fcam-drivers mentioned in that post.

You may have a different issue. I remember having a similar problem, found that thread, uninstalled BlessN900, rebooted, and voila, the camera started working again.

Take the battery out, and try again.

You could try with fcam drivers,

apt-get install fcam-drivers

Sorry. Had the same issue w/ Bless + Power-Kernel, and uninstalling + battery removal did the job.
