I have a Dell M1330 and just switched to openSUSE after a couple years with Ubuntu. What a difference in setup. Everything worked from the first boot. However, after I ran codecs-gnome.ymp Since then Cheese just gives me the color bars. I tried gstreamer-properties and this is what it spit:
(gstreamer-properties:11289): GStreamer-WARNING **: Failed to load plugin ‘/usr/lib64/gstreamer-0.10/libgstcacasink.so’: /usr/lib64/gstreamer-0.10/libgstcacasink.so: undefined symbol: caca_dither_bitmap
