rarsa I did that and it did keep downloading but at such a slooow rate that I decided to run a search and finally the URL I posted came up and could download it off there.

Re: II. Install your WebCamera drivers (spca5xx)
These instructions worked for me. Are there any stand alone web cam viewers that I can use to test my webcam? Eventually, I would like to setup motion http://www.lavrsen.dk/twiki/bin/view/Motion/WebHome with Puppy linux, but before that I want to ensure that my webcam is working.rarsa wrote:II.

I am working on cleaning this out. if you are really eager just do the following for now:
follow the first set of instructions every time you boot.
Thanks.
I am pretty new to Puppy and I wish to get the webcam to work with Puppy. Could you advise me as if I am a total idiot to Puppy?
Webcam I have:
1. Logitech QuickCam for Notebook Pro
2. Veo Velocity Connect
Some questions I have in mind: (pardon me if they are stupid)
1. Puppy can see the USB camera but it is unknown device
2. How do I install the webcams? I see that spca5xx dont support this 2 cameras (correct me if I am wrong). Any step by step instructions for idiots like me?
3. How do I test if it is working when it is successfully installed? What application can I use and how to get and install it?
Hope someone can help. Tks in advance. Pretty desperate to get it working but seems like no answer in my own thread.
