Here's the output of my lsusb command.

Code:

bash-4.3# lsusb

Please guide me how to set up my WebCam.

Try to run dmesg command after you plug the webcam, see output

Hi.Thanks.

The output of dmesg is

Code:

bash-4.3# dmesg | grep cam
[    8.228140] usb 3-1.4: Product: Laptop_Integrated_Webcam_HD
[   12.481320] uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device Laptop_Integrated_Webcam_HD (0c45:64ad)
[   12.526463] input: Laptop_Integrated_Webcam_HD as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb3/3-1/3-1.4/3-1.4:1.0/input/input13

Looks like everything is fine I checked that V4L2 is working and capturing video.

So thanks. Everything works.
