ProbeLabs65 findings · 95 requirementsA proof layer — requirements, tests and verified fixes — for two of Omarchy's subsystems: the application menu (launcher scripts, QML model, JSONC config, search and selection) and the lock screen (lock scripts, QML, PAM authentication). Scope is deliberately limited to those components of omacom/omarchy; the rest of the distribution is not covered.

Original report
System details
HP EliteBook 835 G8, Omarchy 3.3.3, AMD Ryzen 5PRz, AMD Radeon Veg
What's wrong?
My laptop’s built-in webcam is not working on Omarchy.
The system does not detect any video devices:
ls /dev/video*returns:
zsh: no matches found: /dev/video*This suggests the webcam is not being detected by the kernel at all (not an app issue).
What I’ve tried
- Checked
/dev/video*→ no devices found - Tried loading the standard webcam driver:
sudo modprobe uvcvideo (no change)
* This appears to be a driver / hardware detection issue, possibly related to newer laptop webcams (MIPI / IPU-based)
Expected behavior
The built-in webcam should be detected and exposed as /dev/video0.
Actual behavior
No webcam device is detected by the system.
