I'm sitting here with TWO of 'em... neither recognized by the vanity webcam utility... I get this: Vanity could not contact the webcam. Reason: There is no input plugin to handle the location of this movie WTF? I have no clue what that means, other than it don't work just yet. I received a boatload of help on this issue, but when I go back to the webpages, I get "really scared". It becomes confusing to the point of inaction, on my part. Maybe I'll creep up on it, looking sideways until I grok the darn thing. But, my video camera from Kodak works very nicely and does what I want it to. I'm happy as a clam with it. I just can't seem to get the Logitech nor the Micro webcams to work. Oh yes, there are old instructions that do not work with the new udev scheme where there is no /dev/video device. So, some of what I've dnloaded is doomed to failure from the git go. <boggles> If you figure it out, let me know.
