It is a USB cam. How can I get it to work under Linux? I can see the cam in /proc/bus/usb/devices My creative webcam 3 on another system works as /dev/video0 but the Aiptek doesn't seem to be linked to /dev/video0 because the webcam program of xawtv tells me "no grabber device available". What do I need to do to get it to work? Regards, Marcel -- --- The source is there for everyone, it demands awe nor obedience.

During the day I end up with a completly white image at night you can see the lights of the city Any suggestion Highly Appreciated !? Cheers Tobias
