logitech webcam with integrated mic not working

Post by luquino »

Ubuntu 8.10, windows XP guest, VB 2.1.4
I installed the logitech software to manage the webcam in windows and the webcam works quite fine, it' s just a little slow. But the integrated mic doesn' t work at all.
Furthermore, when I connect the usb device trough the VirtualBox usb manager, in linux the device disappears and I have to reboot linux to see again the usb mic in skype.
Well, obviously I can use it in linux, but aMsn still don' t have some functions of windows live messenger....

Webcams are still not working properly in Guests. So don't bother, you will get a black video from the cam.
Read the Forum Posting Guide before opening a topic.
VirtualBox FAQ: Check this before asking questions.
Online User Manual: A must read if you want to know what we're talking about.
Howto: Install Linux Guest Additions
Howto: Use Shared Folders on Linux Guest
See the Tutorials and FAQ section at the top of the Forum for more guides.
