I have a Logitech so-called "Webcam" that works with Windows XP but has
never worked with any Fedora version I've tried. Apparently it requires
a driver gspcav and an application "v4l" both of which I have installed
via yumex on an F-8 system.
The problem always seems to be that there is no /dev/video0 when tried
with programs like camE, vlc, and ekiga.
lsusb shows it as:
Bus 002 Device oo2: ID 046d:0870 Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Express
I don't really need the camera but I have it and would like to make it work.
Any suggestions appreciated.
