Hi all,<br>
<br>
I have just purchased a very cheap webcam (£1.00), and I cannot get *buntu to recognise it?!<br>
<br>
The only details I have are:<br>
<br>
PNP (plug and Play)<br>
CMOS colour sensors ? <br>
24 bit true colour video mode<br>
USB interface<br>
<br>
<br>
"System Requirements"<br>
Pentium 200, or higher CPU<br>
win 98SE - XP<br>
<br>
My Machine (s)<br>
Ideally It would be used with the laptop so I will give that ones specs!<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
running Oneric (11.10)<br>
Kernel 3.0.0-20-generic<br>
Gnome 3.2.1<br>
Dual core Intel Core duo T5250<br>
3gb ram<br>
<br>
Trying to use cheese but have got Kamoso installed and open to suggestions!<br>
<br>
I have a driver on disk for Windows but cannot get any joy with wine or Mono-runtime<br>
<br>
Any Ideas gratefully received<br>
