Webcam and MSN client


With GCam I can see my webcam (so it is not a hardware problem) but with aMsn I can not see it.
Unfortunately aMsn is not yet avaliable for Mandriva. Any ideas on a good client which will use this web cam ?

Whatever gave you that impression?
Code:
amsn-0.97.1-1mdv2008.1.i586.rpm
If you have your repositories setup, you'll find it in contrib backports. Or you can download it from here: http://rpm.pbone.net
