You would need to get a VAIO laptop with a genuine webcam.

Hahaha thanks for your enthusiasm! Never in a million years this machine rocks and is unprecedented!

Let’s try another way then:

Edit2: Let's try with the GSPCA driver then like we investigated earlier. Then there is also the Sony ccd driver investigated at the end the initial thread.

Edit: By the way, Slacko upon shutdown displays an error message that there's a pcmcia slot that is empty and hangs there. I suppose it is related to sony_laptop. How can I restore my frugal? Any idea? Maybe with another save file?

Update: I've installed an SSD PATA hard drive in the machine loading now several times faster.

I wonder if there are new attempts we could do with the camera driver. Any suggestions?
