Hi,
I know this is a bit OT, but this list has helped me before solving a problem concerning grml on an Asus EEE PC.
Is there an easy way to get the camera working under grml? Maybe a module that needs to be loaded? Any help is appreciated!
Greetings,
David

Thanks a lot, as a matter of fact, I did not. Still, it doesn't seem to get my camera working. But this could be a problem either in Skype (2.0.0.72) or with my hardware.

Which model?
I have Debian Unstable + grml-etc-core on my 901, and i think the webcam "just worked" quite all kernels i did try. ( tested with "mplayer tv://" )
However, i do now run a 2.6.28-rc kernel because i had problems with alsa, wlan and suspend/resume with older kernels.
( if you want to try my latest build: http://s8472.dyndns.org/~worf/linux-image-2.6.28-rc7_custom.1.0_i386.deb )
Worf

Thanks a lot for the help!

Thanks a lot, I'll definitely try that as soon as I find the time!

Hmm I'm not 100% sure if my kernel image has all you need for the 701. But it should be worth a try.
Tell me your results, chances are high that i will rebuild once more before Debian or Grml kernels will satisfy my eee's needs :)
