    Or you could use any old video camera with webcam_server (Part of the xawtv package.
  2. Worked a treat using ndiswrapper, Thanks.
  3. Thanks for your reply, I've bought one, I'll report back when I've tried it.
  4. I'm trying to set up a webcam server for my Father. He runs his PCs through a BT Voyager 2100 wireless access point. His other PCs run XP but I don't need to network to them. The server is running LE2005 and I have tried using his SIS162 USB dongle to connect but despite hours of Googling and reading and trying everything I can think of, I have given up and want to try a PCI card. So if any of you out there have used a card successfully with the Voyager I would welcome your recommendations. TIA Richard.
  5. Have you tried Blender? Sorry just tried it myself, if theres a way to do what you want, I cant see it, however xmorph does look like what you want.
  6. A possible answer to your problem may be:- http://lwn.net/Articles/92727/ It solved it for me.
  7. I just added the line and then restarted the network. It's worked for me on all 2.6.8 kernels I tried from cooker and did the trick just fine on Gentoo which is what I'm using now. All I could get before was Google and my bank's site. "net.ip_dynaddr=..." is hashed out on this setup I've got a USR 9003 modem/router. Hope you get it sorted.
  8. There seems to be a problem with the new kernels and some routers. Try adding net.ipv4.tcp_default_win_scale=0 to /etc/sysctl.conf Did the trick for me.
  9. KDE I'd tried linux a few times but not got on with it, then I found KDE and was hooked, haven't used any other desktop since. been with linux now for about 4 years and totally MS free for the last 2.5 years.
  10. Kmail > Settings > Network > Receiving > Modify > Check interval
  11. I don't know if it will help but if you are in the UK you may find that putting options tuner pal=i in /etc/modprobe.conf will help.
  12. Assuming you mean audio files you might want to take a look at a little prog called GramoFile. http://panic.et.tudelft.nl/~costar/gramofile/ It's aimed at people copying vinyl LPs onto CD but may do what you require.
  13. Yes it saves all the pictures but I find the links will not work.
  14. In Konq go tools-archive web page. Will save as .war file don't know if you can view it with anything else other than konq though.
  15. Not an answer to your question, but I wish I could get broadband here, all these ads on TV really p**s me off. I'm only 20 miles from the BT research labs but even they are only on the fringe for broadband if you check the postcode (IP5 3RE). :(
  16. I'm probably way off the mark but I once spent three days trying to get my Epson to work. I finally put it on a Windows machine to test it and it had run out of ink!!! Replaced ink cart, put it back on Mdk machine and it worked.
  17. I might be completely wrong but are you just opening the file or are you pointing your browser to http://localhost (or whatever)? Is your file in your /var/www/html directory?
  18. The .bin file sane is asking for is probably the one on the drivers disk that came with the scanner. For my Snapscan E20 it is called snape30.bin. hope this helps.
  19. Not sure whether it's the same thing, but I mount my USB Smart Media camera on /dev/sda1. Hope this might help. Regards, Richard.
