Thanks to you both for such a speedy reply. I will look into both of
the options you mentioned. I was hoping that this would be relatively
simply. LOL. Well, I guess it may still be. I'll check out the software
and see. FYI I am using a super el cheapo Ezonics- EZcam. It was a
natsty thing to get working in windows too! RH9 is really great. The
more I use it the more I like it. I literally did NOTHING! I plugged in
the camera, opened gnome meeting and clicked the little camera Icon and
it just simply worked. Very cool.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks again to both<br>
<br>
Dave.<br>

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
