Christopher Barrington-Leigh, thank you for reporting this and helping
make Ubuntu better. As per http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products
/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-x-series-tablet-
laptops/thinkpad-x230-tablet an update to your computer's buggy and
outdated BIOS is available (2.61). If you update to this following
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?

If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't
have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, and the information above is provided, then
please mark this report Status Confirmed.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  integrated web cam stopped working suddenly

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I'm on a Lenovo X230T running Ubuntu 14.04 and I regularly video chat for work.
  2.5 weeks ago, my camera didn't come on during google chrome google video chat.
  It still worked when I ran cheese.
  Then, it stopped work under cheese, g-chat, or skype. It didn't work even when I booted into 14.10 or 15.04.

  Then, a week ago, after another update, it began working normally again.
  Yesterday, during a gchat , my video suddenly went off and now the integrated camera doesn't work again under guvcview or cheese or etc.  An external camera works.

  Once again, this problem is consistent across operating systems.
