Logitech Quickcam Messenger.. help!
I just recently got up and running with this new webcam. It seems to be working in that when using Skype, the signal is sent to the person no problem (plus a little funky green light lights up when the camera starts up.) The first thing I noticed though, was that I couldn't see myself in the skype window.
Upon trying to load the camera up in xine or mplayer, the camera seems to startup, but I just get a black screen with no signal. It's as if the signal freezes or something. Anyways, I'm having troubles finding a definitive source for figuring this all out. If anyone has some tips to get the camera up and running, that'd be great. I'm running Slackware on a Dell Inspiron 5150 laptop. Thanks in advance, Coto |
Sorry about the lack of information. The webcam is a usb cam, output from dmesg:
