How can I use my usb webcam on dyne:bolic?
You have to activate the camera loading its kernel module, depending on the webcam you've got:
for logitech/dexxa quickcams the module is mod_quickcam and is installed by typing, at terminal:
modprobe mod_quickcam
for philips webcams the module is pwc:
modprobe pwc
for other webcams, please refer to the [http://www.linux-usb.org linux-usb] site.
Please note that hasciicam and freej don't support philips webcams.
Once the module is loaded, you will get a device called /dev/v4l/video0
For convenience, you could also make a link to it:
ln -sf /dev/v4l/video0 /dev/video
