I'm looking for a heads up on USB Cameras under Linux now and how easy are they? RH7.3 specifically.
One of our local rags (newspapers) has just come out with a four sheet "saleathon" for advertising post christmas sales. Strathfield car radio has multiple pages (cheap Cds (35c+), etc) and includes two Digital Camearas for $58 each. There is the StarCam, which is clearly shown as USB capable and the Agfa digital camera[1]. Both are claimed to do 640x480 pixel. I'm not looking for a digital camera, but more webcam type cameras, i.e. something I can just connect up to the PC to capture images. At $58, I think they are worth buying for a fiddle. [1] It doesn't look to be the same as the agfa mentioned at http://www.mit.edu/~mkgray/ephoto/ or http://photopc.sourceforge.net. Curiously, Agfa (http:www.agfa.com) says that they have decided to discontinue their digital cameras at the end of 2001. -- Terry Collins {:-)}}} Ph(02) 4627 2186 Fax(02) 4628 7861 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] www: http://www.woa.com.au Wombat Outdoor Adventures <Bicycles, Books, Computers, GIS> "People without trees are like fish without clean water" -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
