[ubuntu-it] Webcam Creative Live! (VF0470) e Ubuntu...

[Marco Gaiarin]

Ho recuoerato questa webcam che avevo acquistato anni fa; il kernel la
riconosce correttamente:

Se apro VLC e apro la 'periferica di acquisizione' (/dev/video0), funziona
perfettamente.

Ma ne Cheese!, ne i browser con i vari servizi di videoconferenza la vedono.


Perchè?! Grazie.
