hi Jean-Francois,

I finally got to my sister's computer. Installed ubuntu 9.10 yesterday to
see the webcam displaying random patterns unrelated to an image (looks like
memory garbage).


I then booted into windows and tried using sniff-bin and snoopy and all but
none of them would create a long file. I am at a loss why.

I did a sniff with USBlyzer; if you want, I can send you the ulz file you
can open with USBlizer under windows (they have a free 30 day download with
no restrictions).

Please let me know if this will be enough, or should I coax my sis into
purchasing a supported webcam : )

Thanks a bunch.
Alex.
