So we know the webcam is ok, it just needs a faster port.
Did you try anything else on the USB2 card? A memory stick, something simple, so you can check if the card is operational at all. > Am I doing something wrong? Is my USB card maybe only for PC? It seems to me you're doing everything right, but maybe your card is not Mac-compatible. USB2 cards can be tricky... I tried one recently (I got it from a PC), a memory stick on it worked fine, but a 2,5" external HD had troubles. OTOH, the Mac-compatible card I have, always worked fine. > Do I need a driver for the new USB 2.0? In OSX you don't need drivers (they are built-in), in OS9 there are NO USB2 drivers. > If it works at some point, do I end up with "two USB buses"? Yes, that's how they appear in my G4 DA with the USB2 card: there's an "USB bus" and an "High speed USB bus". (actually there are several "USB bus", because I have an USB 1.1 Hub connected; anyway System profiler can tell the difference between speeds). -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
