This is my first foray into web camera type stuff so I decided to start out small. I purchased a Belkin 2-Port USB/PCI port card. It has an Opti chipset 82C861 and detects just fine under RHL7.0 and Win98/SE (this is a dual-boot machine) The PC-Camera is a model 3.02 near as I can tell. It works fine under Win98, of course where I dont care if it works. I tested it on that side to see if the hard was working (14 day return policy). I have modprobed ibmcam.o and it doesnt appear to detect the camera on any port. Checked cat /proc/devices. xawtv complains about device not found /dev/video which is a symlink to video0. The V4L stuff is also installed. The permissions for the video0 are crw 1 henris root 81,0 So now what? Or halp! Or am I even on the right list? The only other one I havent tried yet is the linux-usb list. Regards, Henri
