Webcam sous Linux? Ce qu'ont répondu trois fabricants.



Je magasinais les caméras vidéo de type "WebCam" pour une utilisation sous 
Linux, et devant le manque d'informations, j'ai décidé de contacter plusieurs 
fabricants/distributeurs pour leur demander laquelle de leurs caméras 
fonctionne sous Linux, et je voulais aussi savoir si le pilote ("driver") 
était libre ou propriétaire. Voici ce qu'on m'a répondu.

De la part de D-Link:

> According to Linux help sites, I checked, most of users of Linux

Bref, que d'excitation! Seul le support à la clientèle de D-Link a été 
capable de me donner une réponse quelque peu encourageante.

Quelqu'un connaît d'autres fabricants? Quelqu'un a des recommandations?

Nicolas
