hi all,

just get cheese (webcam software for linux )




yum install cheese


I am not sure that will work. It depends upon what application you
use. In Fedora 11 my Dell integrated cam 'just worked'; in F12 the 'evo'
web conference tool doesn't seem to recognise it - I get an error about
'no openGL found'
If you have problems, and can find a 'live' F11 to check with, it
might be worth testing.

I'm using Dell Vostro 1520 with integrated Web-Cam .... cheese works for
me ( I'm using Fedora 12 x86_64 , uname -r = 2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64 )
