ROORTOKES · 08-08-2003, 10:29 PM

all i want to do is be able to recive transmision videos from someone but it does not work...i just get the gnomemeeting splash screen. The configuration druid does not detect my /dev/video* neither 1 or 0 work. It is very frustrating. I also have unchecked enable video trasnmssion and just have recieve video transmission on. Any tips? Just wanna be able to view a friend.

thanks in advance

well you are using a webcam or not
/dev/video* should work
check that out with xawtv
(but you should have a webcam which works in linux)

you don't need a webcam just the ip or the gatekeeper name of the computer you are trying to connect,this would be enough.
