relatively new to linux and want to set up a web cam for use in some kind of messanger service. where to start. I have fedora and mandrake on my system (dual boot). I can only see the web cam in gnome net meeting but can that be used to connect to one of the intenet ICQ's or yahoo messanger service. I guess I will start with mandrake but i am more familiar with red hat.
