Flash camera support on the EEEPC 701, state of the art
10/23/08
I have decided to put together a chart showing what flash based video capture websites I have successfully used with my EEEPC 701 webcam. Please feel free to add comments with your experiences. I'd especially like to hear from some EEEPC 900 owners.

Notes:
NR - works with Flash 10 so not tested, should work OK with flashcam too
1 - sometimes requires you to use the command echo 1 > /proc/acpi/asus/camera in a terminal window to enable the camera before it will be detected
TBD - data not available
Here are some links to articles I have written on setting up Flash 10 on the EEEPC and installing Flashcam on the EEEPC. Flashcam is a utility that converts the V4L2 camera interface on the EEEPC to the dumber V4L interface that some flash based websites work better with.

OMG I’m so excited! FINALLY native webcam support for flash in Linux!
