any ideas to this issue? I have tried everything listed in this forum and can't find what could be wrong.
I am suspecting it is some compatibility issue with some other app.

Here is easy way to fix this.. You do not need to remove power-kernel!
Make sure extra-devel is on.
xterminal:
When it run agen.
Xterminal:
hope this will help.

Looks like I'm gonna try reflashing the kernel.
One note, when I did apt-get remove fcamera, apt told me that it was removing several kernel-related packages. I was on auto-pilot, and should have just said "no."
Update: flashed just the kernel and we're up and running again.

I tried reinstalling omap3camd as suggested above. That fixed it somewhat. The camera app was starting again. But the image had a green tint and the auto-focus did not work anymore. Things are different in the FCamera app, everything worked there. My best guess is that some configuration files got jumbled up.
So finally I created a backup, re-flashed the PR1.3 image and restored the backup. Everything is fine again. Either way, I still wonder what has caused the issue in the first place.
