You will find ekiga and skype in the write ups. (V4l, V4l1 and v4l2. I think from there you can follow the trail. I loaded the modules, plug the camera in, continued to change the configuration of ekiga until I had a picture . Then moved on. They have section name V4LWiki. Good luck.

All I seem to read is stuff from people like me who have tried something that isn't working. I learn very little from that :-) Karl Stuart Lesnett wrote: > Karl, I've been watching the conversation concerning camorama.
