Actually, I did that. What I didn't do is researching your famous "webcam". No matter what the manufacturer calls it, if it's a digicam, you should have asked "digicam" not "webcam". If it's a webcam, use any v4l-program - if you have a v4l-driver for that "cam". So, please, don't tell others how to give advice if your question is imprecise. -- Tschoe, http://gecius.de/gpg-key.txt - Fingerprint: Jens 1AAB 67A2 1068 77CA 6B0A 41A4 18D4 A89B 28D0 F097 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
