I've been looking at laptops with built-in CCDs, specifically the
Alienware MJ-12 7700.  I chatted with one of their sales droids and asked
if the video camera was supported in Linux, to which the answer was "we
don't support that."  Further inquiries as to the technical specs only get
me as far as "300K Video Camera Module".  (which I presume means 300Kpixel
CCD, although I saw a stick-on version of one of these that was really
100Kpixel and did some software mojo to "claim" 300K)

Question is, does anyone either know what it really is, or better yet, is
it supported by Linux?
