After entering "cheese" into the terminal, the program starts up, I see a bit of the interface, such as the buttons, but no video. That's in a split second, because the program closes almost right after it comes up. I'm running this program on an Asus Eee. Does anyone know what these errors mean and how I can fix them?

I get the same errors.. I'm not sure what's wrong with it..

You must be very special then because "letters" has 7

Getting the same errors trying to use the internal camera on a Sony Vaio. (device 05ca:1836 Ricoh Co., Ltd)
Hmm... I'll try an older revision of Cheese now

I also got this same error on ASUS Eee PC. Would really love to know how to fix this.
For what it's worth, Cheese works fine on Ubuntu.

I got the same problem, but after installing all gstreamer plugins with
pacman -S gstreamer0.10-plugins
it worked... seems like one of these plugins was needed, but i can't tell you which... didn't hurt to install them all (10 mb or something)

i also have the same bug. tracking the bug i found that is a problem with gstreamer when using linux-uvc driver:
i quote from cheese/faq
"Try to see if it works with gstreamer-properties. If it works there, please fill a bug. Else bug the gstreamer guys"
the bug is in gstreamer <0.10.6

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Same problem, same solution. (Using linux-uvc with macbook isight)
Probably ought to find out which plugin(s) it is, so that the dependencies can be changed for the package.

I still get the errors after installing gstreamer0.10-theora, and am unable to install gstreamer0.10-plugins because metadata and soup require bad to be >=0.10.6 and cheese requires base to be >=0.10.18, even though both are. And if it matters, my webcam uses gspacv1 and works great with Kopete and xawtv.
Here's the error for cheese:
