I agree with your answer there Anne. �I'm glad you told him where to go. �Steve Kuhn is right. �We are swimming upstream. �But, to continue the analogy, why do fish swim upstream in the first place? �To SPAWN. �And spawn we will. �Eventually they won't be able to ignore the linux user. �It will become more and more mainstream. �I know alot of the real geeks (no offense) really deep inside want this to happen. �It will take away the pretentious little niche we've carved. �But, the easier linux distros are to use, the more users they will generate. �Anyway, I'll quit ranting. �But Anne was exactly right to say what she said. �Don't worry about swimming upstream. �It will eventually pay off with persistance an patience.

I want to capture video from an analogue camera, using Linux.  Will the
Pinnacle LINX USB Video Input Cable work under Linux?
