@malcolmlewis ok I got my webcam finally working, so the problem is that /dev/video
or /dev/video0
in my case doesn’t get created. So I had to unload and load the ‘facetimehd’ module.
This was finding nothing:
ls /dev | grep vid
First make sure the browser is closed, then type:
sudo modprobe -r facetimehd
sudo modprobe facetimehd
You should now see something with (if this is your problem):
ls /dev | grep vid
Open the browser and just search for ‘test webcam’ site and it should work.

@6m-uTnj you might want to try the steps I did and see if you can get yours working. FYI: you don’t need to build the drive, just install it like I did from a prebuilt package.
