Yeah, I don't think Camorama works or works with your webcam.

Try wxCam and some of the other Web Cam applications.

I haven't tried it myself, but it seems as if you need some evil binary
driver from http://www.linux-projects.org/modules/mydownloads/

On the other hand http://sn-webcam.sourceforge.net/ seems to claim that
the required driver is enclosed in the latest 2.6 kernels.

I've found that the best solution is to go with a Webcam that uses the
UVC standard as that gives you good pug and play across a variety of
application software.

It can be a hassle to find linux drivers for some of the windoze-centric
devices. You can check for OS X support (ie Unix) which wil mean that
linux support is possible. With For your camera look here:

Also, as a gut told me 15+ yrs ago: "You can always write your own
driver." I always get a kick out of that one since the last code I wrote
was back in the 8080/Z80 days.

Enjoy.

Hi,

Maybe I am a bit late, but these webcams are now handled by the gspca
subdriver sonixb which is included in last Linux kernels. If any
problem, try the development tarball in my page.

Cheers.
