When I open cheese, all camera leds start blinking. No button is responsive
within the app, only closing the application is possible.
For the possible problem: I have Lenovo Thinkpad T480 which has two built-in
camera. One in Infra, one is normal:
usb:1

product: Integrated IR Camera: Integrate

physical id: 5
bus info: usb@1:5
logical name: input15
logical name: /dev/input/event8
version: 10.13

configuration: driver=uvcvideo maxpower=500mA

*-usb:2

product: Integrated Camera: Integrated C
vendor: Chicony Electronics Co.,Ltd.
physical id: 8
bus info: usb@1:8
logical name: input16
logical name: /dev/input/event10
version: 0.27
serial: 0001
capabilities: usb-2.01 usb
configuration: driver=uvcvideo maxpower=500mA
speed=480Mbit/s
I think cheese is unable to decide which camera to use. I think this can be the
problem because all cameras led is blinking.
I checked the normal camera in browser on an online platform. It works so the
problem is with the application.
One more error in journalctl which can be related to this problem:
