[ILUG] Typhoon Webcam

[Timothy Murphy]

I bought a Typhoon Webshot II for 19.99 euro at Lild last week,
and wondered if anyone had got this to work under Linux?
It connects to a USB port.

To be honest, I haven't got it working under Windows-XP -
I just get a screen of random pixels.

But what program would be likely to work under Linux?
I gather it saves pictures in MPEG format
from the very scanty documentation.
It says it is DT/NB compatible, whatever that means.

Any suggestions gratefully received.
