Upstream has closed the cheese bug as "Not Gnome" , Quoting Upstream:

"You should be able to have cheese working again installing libv4l >= 0.5.7 and
a recent uvcvideo driver. If you are running ubuntu intrepid this means
enabling intrepid-proposed and upgrading kernel from there.
Unfortunately libv4l didn't enter intrepid repositories yet but you can install
it from Loic Minier's PPA at https://launchpad.net/~lool/+archive
If you're not using Ubuntu check if your distribution already packaged latest
libv4l and upgrade it or install it from source."

"Little update: libv4l 0.5.7 entered intrepid-proposed. Installing from Loic
Minier's PPA is not needed anymore."

Closing cheese task.
