Webcam problem
Hello everyone 
I get a christmas present today - webcam. GILE WA-006 ( http://www.bms.lt/lt/catalog/view/?id=33163 )
The problem is, that I can't start my webcam on Linux.
lsusb:
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0c45:62c0 Microdia
dmesg:
usb 1-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4
usb 1-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
So webcam is not working... I tryed to search for drivers(listings in the arch wiki article "Webcam setup"), but found nothing. Any help? By the way... Merry Christmas

Re: Webcam problem
Have you tried the camera on a Windows system to be sure it works?

Re: Webcam problem
Try installing luvcview, it is made to work with those cameras.
