    help with IBM webcam

    I've done some searching and most of what I've pertains to the quickcam. I need help getting my old IBM webcam going. If I do lsusb, I get:

    Bus 001 Device 012: ID 0545:8080 Xirlink, Inc. IBM C-It WebCam

    If I go into Kopete, I can see my TV card as /dev/video0, but my webcam doesn't show up. EasyCam does see it.

    Which driver do I need and how do I load it?

      First place I went. Still no joy.

      For some reason, I can't get the camera set to video1. Video0 is my TV card.

        OK...dig a lot of digging and lsmod shows me:

        Module Size Used by
        ibmcam 48364 0
        usbvideo 28420 1 ibmcam
        sn9c102 120708 0
        gspca 608336 0

        So, how do I get an app, say Kopete, to use the usbvideo module?
