Re: [LUG] WebCam ! (and ext3)



I think this months linux format has a section on USB, I am waiting for the
DVD version to appear on the shelf in smiths,  so I buy that one,  so if /
when I get a DVD drive I have more software to play with,  for the extra £1
it's worth it,

Not sure if this is any help.  I looked today and they only have the CD
issue.  I will probably have to ask again.
