I did do my homework, and went shopping with a printout in my hand. The webcam I bought was the latest one to be added to the list, and it simply said 'working'. Unfortunately that was all the info I could get. When I got it home I found that I could not tell which chipset it used, so I had no idea what driver it needed. Fortunately some kind soul found that bit for me, and I could get a driver for it. After all that, it works, but the picture is not good, having severe colour distortion. Just to add to the mix - I can set up the webcam in amsn, kopete or ekiga, and all of them need a different setting to get anything like acceptable colour. I'm not bitching - I've spoken to the amsn team and offered to help in any way I can in tracking down the problem - but problems there certainly are. Anne
