How to get Creative Webcam running

I am a Linux newbie (been using Ubuntu Feisty for about 2 weeks). I have a creative labs webcam and do not know how to set it up. Would appreciate help . Thanks.

Hi frank002, Welcome to lq. Could we get a little more info on the device? Please post the output from the following command

Code:

/sbin/lspci -v

or if that returns nothing try one of theses

Code:

sudo lspci -v

lspci -v

I'm not sure what the path is in Ubuntu.
Is this device connected via usb? If so, please post the output from the following command

Code:

su

password

lsusb

Be sure to exit su when done. Other than that it looks like some folks have drivers for some creative webcams. Have a look here.
