i am not a linux advance user. even though i have used linux for years i am a pretty much profound retard when it comes to linux. i do the user friendly stuff well, ounce shit hits the fan… idk what i am doing. any help from an advance user or someone who just knows anything that could help i would be grateful.

PS: i use to use my webcam A LOT. even now i wanna go online and talk to people but i can’t. :-1:

cheese says this specifically: no supported camera found connect a webcam or other supported video deceive to take photos and video

OMG it worked! on: https://www.onlinemictest.com/webcam-test/

so now i am even more confused
