    Webcam driver ? Solved

    Hi,

    The Skype audio test claims I have configured Skype correctly. But my new Creative Live!Cam Socialize (Which includes a mic) needs some drivers as only those for MS Windows are provided. Creative spec requires a Linux kernal 2.6 or later which I think I have.

    Can anyone advise please me on my next move?

    Thanks for your time.

      Start by installing the guvcview and v4l2ucp packages. These should pull in the libraries needed for your webcam.
