but Otavio is looking for older kernel and I looked for such few weeks ago
and couldn't find such.

I would try jessie
http://ftp.at.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/linux/kernel-image-3.16.0-6-amd64-di_3.16.56-1+deb8u1_amd64.udeb

if this is what you mean that it should work with older release

http://snapshot.debian.org/package/linux/

(unless you know the exact package name search by source package name)

That is a special kernel for the Debian Installed (note the -di in the 
name)

Kind regards,

Thanks. So, this is the list of all linux-image-amd64:
https://snapshot.debian.org/binary/linux-image-amd64/

Which one should I install? Which was the first kernel that came with 
Stretch?

Otavio, come on, does google not work on your PC?
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianStretch says 4.9 and 4.10, but even without
this you can find the images based on the debian version.

4.9+80+deb9u12 (source: linux-latest 80+deb9u12)
4.9+80+deb9u11 (source: linux-latest 80+deb9u11)
4.9+80+deb9u10 (source: linux-latest 80+deb9u10)
4.9+80+deb9u9 (source: linux-latest 80+deb9u9)
4.9+80+deb9u8 (source: linux-latest 80+deb9u8)
4.9+80+deb9u7 (source: linux-latest 80+deb9u7)
4.9+80+deb9u6 (source: linux-latest 80+deb9u6)
4.9+80+deb9u5 (source: linux-latest 80+deb9u5)
4.9+80+deb9u4 (source: linux-latest 80+deb9u4)
4.9+80+deb9u3 (source: linux-latest 80+deb9u3)
4.9+80+deb9u2 (source: linux-latest 80+deb9u2)

Ah, I get it now. deb9 = Stretch.

I'll try 4.9+80+deb9u1 then and we'll take it from there.

You might want to read the description for 'linux-image-amd64' first ;)

The exact version that was released with stretch might be difficult to 
find out.

A good approximation would be to search for the first Debian Security 
Advisory (DSA) for linux in stretch, it will mention the next higher 
version.

Kind regards,
Andrei

Your kernel believes you have two video cameras, one named
Trust. They have different USB ids.

They both get recognized repeatedly in your snippet, but because
there is not enough context, I can't tell whether that means

- you put the laptop to sleep/wake.

- the cameras were unplugged/replugged.

- the kernel had an oops.

If you absolutely need a working camera as soon as possible, buy
a new USB camera.

but the subject says it is integrated. I suggest just install a new kernel
(may be from back ports if available and you want to stay on stretch)
you can compile new kernel or simply upgrade to buster.

I have a usb flash drive with an old (2 years or so) Debian Testing 
image (Buster, which in the meantime is stable) running kernel 4.9.0-14 
(same as the one I'm currently running now, but probably built on top of 
different libraries). I installed cheese and the webcam was recognized 
instantly. I played around with it for a bit and even shook the laptop, 
just to see if there was a problem with some internal cable and the 
camera was still working.

I don't know what to make of it. This rules out a possible hardware 
problem; but also a problem with that kernel series?

Try comparing kernel messages (dmesg).

Or install the old kernel image into the buster and try to eliminate or
confirm it depends on library or on kernel driver.
