When I plug the device in, I get a new device in /dev: /dev/usbdev3.2 in dmesg I got: usb 3-3: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 2 usb 3-3: USB disconnect, address 2 So presumably I can use the device? Er, how to I get Skype to recognize it, then? Skype now supports video. Or Kopete, for that matter. Thanks.
