Have you tried xawtv?<BR>
While we are on a note like this, check out this little story....<BR>
One of my clients bought a new usb camera, hooked it up in there Mandrake 8.1 box, it would find it but had a problem mounting it as a mass storage device, even though it found it as a scsi device, anyway,<BR>
brought it back here to check on my RedHat 8 box, same thing. Told them to let me upgrade them to RedHat 9, I was sure it would pick it up, same thing. I upgraded all the packages on the RH site, still same thing. Thought I would try updating the kernel via the RH network (up2date), and voila! Under the new kernel, picks up the camera, mount it as /dev/sda1 and now we have pics!<BR>
That was totally *ing cool!!!<BR>

Gnomemeeting works wonderfully for conferencing, but I found no option
to save a clip anywhere. ( BTW the usb web cam worked instantly, ZERO
config required. I was impressed ) I am using RH9 if that makes a
difference. Anyone know of an app that will allow this to happen? I know
that my son uses a windows box so the file format would need to be
something that windows would recognise.
TIA
