USB webcam
« on: February 08, 2015, 11:20:08 AM »
Hello

Is tinycore 4.3 or above able to find and use most usb webcams?

Will the cam be correctly driven by Adobe Flash on some typical web page
video conference tool or something.

Maybe you must install an extension first?

I don't know about most webcams, but it finds my webcam.

You'll need the v4l-dvb-KERNEL extension and a suitable app (probably not the best example, but cheese works).
