Ok, cheers. It seems the microphone aspect of the webcam might be an issue: uvideo0 at uhub1 port 4 configuration 1 interface 0 "Logitech product 0x081b" rev 2.00/0.10 addr 2 video0 at uvideo0 uaudio0 at uhub1 port 4 configuration 1 interface 2 "Logitech product 0x081b" rev 2.00/0.10 addr 2 uaudio0: audio descriptors make no sense, error=4 ----------------------------------------------------------- What should/can I do to configure this, is it possible using existing drivers in the GENERIC kernel? Will I need to modify the kernel config and recompile it or add some new software for it? Is there a section in the docs about these type of webcams. Cheers, Jamie.
