 |
|
Ladies and gentlemen, I bought a Genius VideoCAM Look webcam and can't do it work properly. It seems to use the sn9c102 module but when I run xawtv I got a black screen and nothing else.
It seems to use this module because when it's loaded the green light over the webcam lights up and these lines appear at /var/log/messages:
