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
