Thx for the info but one more input how can I find out what kind of logitech cam I have and my webcam is already plug in usb.
well I assumed you knew what you had.
Open a terminal and go su, then do:
lsusb -v
[edit]
There will be a load of usb hub stuff. wade through it to find the device.
Your device should be connected directly to one of your usb ports
Thx again lsusb -v I did that about 15min.ago the list never endingrotfl!rotfl!

HiSuse-Beginner;
if I just type
lsusb
in a terminal; I get much less information;
and for our webcam I get
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0ac8:301b Z-Star Microelectronics Corp. ZC0301 WebCam
the selected ID information I get from the above line:
ID 0ac8:301b
is what I need to identify what type of driver I may need:
eg this website was regarded as a very good place to look:
http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca5xx.html
You can see in the top columns, that
the third is Vendor Id and
the fourth is Product Id
In the numbers I got:
0ac8
is Vendor ID and
301b
is Product ID
so I would use the FIND option in the Edit menu of Firefox to help me try to find the product ID
you will spot that I would need
0x
in front of the 301b so if I enter
0x301b
I get that mine is a Wasam in the most left column, entitled SUNPLUS (I don’t know why the first column is called that!)
good hunting; let the forum know how you get along
