How to install camera


I have laptop with 1.3Mp camera built in the screen panel. I don't know neither type or manufacturer. Only I remember in WinXp it was recognized as USB camera.

This is the link of my laptop specs.

http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWebSite/Pro...nuID=1&LanID=9

Unfortunately there is no drivers for linux.

How can I see what my camera type is and where to find driver?

Post the rest of the lspci -v

If it is a USB device, then it is not being recognised at all?? ... is the camera ON?

also post output of

#su
#lsusb -v


(You can install lshw from the slackware site.)

Post a "sudo dmesg" too, maybe it would help.

I posted the whole lspci -v in the previous post. I was cut last line of command promt. I edit my first post and add "root@laptop:/etc#" to be sure that is the end of the lspci -v

lsusb -v and dmesg - see attachments



lol this was huge. I will review it. Hope you will find something

Looks like the camera is an eMPIA with USB numbers eb1a:2750, see here, I think this is the exact same camera:
