    I am using AA1 Linpus, I recently found out that the web cam application in the fun section crashes from time to time. When I click it, it starts and only show blue screen, than it freezes, and the screen goes black, i have to shut it off via power button. And somethimes it works again! I first thougt about the app i installed via yum, I have only installed picasa and wine. I first uninstall wine, and the application works again, so I think it is the problem of wine, however, it crashes again now!, is this the problem of picasa?

    I'm not sure, but I do know Picasa is a Windows app running under a special build of Wine. There is no "Linux version" as such.

    So, if Wine's the culprit, perhaps the special build of Wine is likewise an issue.
