Integrated webcam on Thinkpad R500

#1 Post by drunkenwallaby » Fri Mar 06, 2009 4:45 pm

Hello everybody.

I try to make the integrated webcam on my Thinkpad R500, Model 2714 work on Linux. The problem I am facing is that I don't have any information on the camera itself (just integrated webcam) so I don't have a clue which modules are needed on linux to get this cam working.

My questions: Does anyone uses the integrated webcam on linux and if so, which module is needed? Does anyone have some more Information about the integrated webcam on this Thinkpad?

Thanks everybody for your input!
