Webcam

Hi,

I would like to set up a webcam on my Slackware system. Any recommendations?

I need to be able to capture the images and then store them on a server for security in my house. I may be using two.

Many Thanks,

Rob

Phillips webcams are well supported under linux using the pwc module. I have a phillipe ToU Cam and that works fine.
