Hi Sandie,
> I attended 1 of your pub meetings in August '17
I recall; you chatted to Tim quite a bit about recovering some photos
from a password-guarded USB stick.
> installed via a disro created on a usb Ubuntu 22.
For the record, Was that 22.04 or 22.10? Running
lsb_release -a
should say.

Based on https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Webcam_setup, which I know is
for Arch Linux, not Ubuntu, but lots is similar, can you give us the
output of
v4l2-ctl --list-devices
If you don't have that command then try installing the v4l-utils
package.
Also, a list of the USB devices, including the internal ones which
should include the camera, would be useful. Running
lsusb
will give that.
Others will hopefully have advice on the others problems like hibernate.
I thought I'd just pick one ‘simple’ thing to start with. :-)
