Bug#554338: cheese crashed soonafter starting it Severity: important

[Dirk linnerkamp]

Package: cheese
Version: 2.22.3-3


Dear bug team,


after starting Cheese from the panel my web-cam gives sign, that it is working
(LED-controll-lamp is blinking) and the "cheese-window" opens just as if it
would start correctly but a few seconds later it completely crashed. This
happens as often as i try to start it again. Starting cheese from a shell, i get
the following output:

The program 'cheese' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'

Best wishes

Dirk Linnerkamp
