Acer Crystal Eye doesn't work

Asked by Icia

In Jaunty, my webcam doesn't work with Cheese : has a bunch of colored blocks like a TV screen test
with Skype: recognizes Webcam but displays no image when test is clicked.

In Stickam, Meebo, and Tinychat, It also doesn't work.

After going to the global flash settings and enabling all websites to use my webcam, and restarting, the problem fixed itself.
