webcam
There's a webcam built into the rim of the screen. That's all I know.
How can I start to find out more about it and in the end get it running on my Ubuntu 5.01 (Breezy Badger) laptop
many thanks
Dan

What kind of laptop? Do you know anything about how the webcam interfaces? Output of lspci and lsusb might be useful.
