Instant webcam image does not appear but is sent via VoIP on Lenovo IdeaPad Z580A


When using Skype, the person who I talk to does see my picture, but I do not see neither mine, nor her. And in Cheese I can take my photo by webcam, but I do not see any image (black box instead) until the photo is taken and appears in the lower part of window. What could be the problem?

Lenovo IdeaPad Z580A, using integrated Intel HD Graphics video card and "Lenovo EasyCamera" as input device (name from dmesg output). Debian 6.0.5, kernel 3.2.0-0.bpo.3-amd64.

part of dmasg output I can consider to be related to my web camera:
