@ Dimitrios Can you please try whether it works with another application, for instance with cheese

@ Dimitrios What do you mean by "it takes the photo" At first I thought you meant the photo was taken, but only refused to get saved, but now I think no photo is taken at all. Do you see anything, can you make a screen shot of the "taken photo"?
It takes the photo but there is no output. With Cheese, on startup i have the message no device found And the light (normally a green led) beside the camera is always off (i've never seen it on) So it means that my camera it is nt operationally
Please show the output of ls /dev/video*

it dosnt exist: [xenia@localhost ~]$ ls /dev/video* ls: impossible d'accéder à /dev/video*: Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type
no it is : [xenia@localhost ~]$ ls /dev/video* /dev/video0 i forgot to click on the fn+camera it is ok now , i tried with the cheese program and it is ok. Only with kamoso it does nt work in any way. So, it has to be a problem with kamoso. I will report it upstream thanks
Status: NEW => RESOLVEDResolution: (none) => INVALID
If i am connected to the netbook from my desktop with ssh, i have the image with kamoso!

Summary: the webcam does nt work, MSI U110 => MSI U110 - the webcam does nt work with kamoso
i reopen the bug as a bug of kamoso (if there is an objection you can close it)
Keywords: (none) => UPSTREAMStatus: RESOLVED => REOPENEDResolution: INVALID => (none)
It seems a graphics card (drivers) issue, i close the bug as i dont have the netbook any more available
