Now how the heck do you detect it or what dir is it accessed from? In other words, how ya turn the darn thing on? hehe
This is a webcam (where it perches atop your monitor and you wave at folks on the fly in your pajamas with it?) and not a digital picture taking camera, say CHEESE type of thing with a flash and zoom and all that?
Install gthumb and gnome-volume-manager. The camera must have two modes: one for taking pictures, one for downloading them. Set it on download. Then plug it in, turn it on and the gthumb importer should pop up.
That wouldn't work for a webcam would it? Where video is just captured and streamed constantly? Regards, Ric
