I was digging around in my desk the other day, and found a cheesy little USB webcam that Earthlink sent me about 3 years ago. I figured I'd play with it a little, but then realized I've never used a USB device on my linux box (don't have a windows box anymore)...so I don't even know if they work, let alone how to make the webcam work. So, a couple questions:
1. How can I tell for sure if my USB ports work? I plugged the webcam in, and booted up, but didn't see the little green light on it flash (not that I expected to). 2. Assuming they work, what software should I use for this webcam? And of course, that's even assuming it will work ... it barely worked in windows, although I think that was more a software and OS problem than it was the webcam itself. I'm using 9.1b3 right now, on a PC with an Abit KG7 mobo, AMD XP1800+, 1 gig of RAM, and ATI Radeon 32 meg All in wonder. Thanks! -- peace, Rog http://www.slammingrooves.com
