64bit Webcam Drivers HELP!!!

[TheKeyMaker]

I have been having some trouble finding drivers for my web cam so I was hoping that the forms could help or at least direct me in the right direction.

Problem: I'm currently running Ubuntu 8.04 x64, and want to use my Microsoft VX-6000 with aMSN. I found forms that talk about 32bit drivers, but as you can see I need a 64bit one. Any ideas?

Any help would be appreciated!

Thank!

Oh if this helps too, my computer does recognize it.

Just to make sure, install Cheese (click (apt:cheese)) and then launch it from applications - graphics - cheese. Does it show no preview?

[TheKeyMaker]

Well I wouldn't say it shows nothing, but at the same time all it does show is the colored lines ans static that Ubuntu uses for there monitor test.

I got the same problem here with cheese under 8.04x64. But i got a logitech quickcam messenger.

Cheese in 8.04 completely broke for me. I know that the 0.23 version in 7.10 repositories was working fine... I'll try and see if I can get a .deb of that.

Yeah if it will help. If I can just get this camera working, it would really be helpful!

Thanks for your help thus far!

Did you have any luck with this?

Nope... Sorry. If I get it working I will let you know. Let me know if you find out anything too. Thanks for the post!

Did you look here (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=232751)?

Usually a search of the UF or Google will deliver the desired results.

I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 HH and i got the same problem here.
I have a Z-Star ZC 0303 Webcam and i did everything possible to get it to work, but i failed. Installed V4l and v4l2 libraries, gspca-sources, v4l-conf. and nothing worked. BUT, when i use Ekiga i do use the webcam, when i try to open Cheese or Camorama, it didn't. I almost format the system one more time, but i give up...
What should I do to make my webcam work fine at all programs?
