So I have been in possession of four different webcams. I’ve been trying to get them to work on Linux, but have been having issues. Two of them are too old to even work on Windows, one of which works in Linux, but it doesn’t do the auto light exposure. The third one was DOA, and the last one seems to lock up computers. So I broke down and went to Target to look at cameras. I finally decided on a Logitech QuickCam Messenger after a little research via Google on my phone. It also came with a second camera, a Labtech. I took the camera home, and to my surprise, Ubuntu immediately recognized it and the built-in microphone (I had previously had issues with the microphone on my computer). Ever since, I have been Skyping away with my family, including my sister in Iraq, and Danielle’s friend Misty. I love it, and it’s becoming quite an addiction. So if you have Skype, Skype me at jason.greb. I will be sending the free camera to my grandmother so that I can see her also.
Skype Me
Grandma is lucky to have you!
I like Skype too!
