hi

go backwards and confirm your webcam and you have the correct modules pls

lsusb......show us your usb ids for webcam

lsmod | grep usb......show us your results pls

2) leaping ahead is that the only software for cam you have tried?

These are the modules for the web cam, you have listed

Quote:
usbcore 185744 12........ gspca_zc3xx,gspca_main ......
first error
Quote:
QFont::setRawName(): Invalid XLFD: "system"
so the module is loaded,

Check your fonts and Qt installation, check the program requires/deps you may need to simply upgrade your Qt (cute) packages.

ref: http://lists.trolltech.com/qt-intere...ad00427-0.html (trolltech=kde=qt=nokia, my nephew works there, lol)
ref: http://lists.debian.org/debian-kde/2.../msg00071.html

sorry for the hijack, and I hope this helps.

Regards Glenn
