Comment(by corbet):

 I have found one definite camera driver bug: it forgets the pre-suspend
 operating state, so never restarts the image capture process.  A patch for
 that will be headed in shortly.

 HOWEVER: fixing this bug does not lead to a happily-ever-after situation
 yet.  I'm seeing some real weirdness after resume, including: (1) I get
 the green screen until I hit a key on the keyboard - something, somewhere
 is clogging the system, (2) I get occasional full-screen flickering, and
 (3) when the video stream does resume, the colors are, um, not what they
 were before.  Sort of a bad science fiction movie effect.  It's worth
 noting that photos saved to the journal retain this color scheme.

 I can't find anything else that seems wrong - it *should* work.  There's
 enough weirdness in the system after a resume, though, that it's hard for
 me to tell what's going on...
