[kwlug-disc] Where to fix an Acer A500 tablet?

[Khalid Baheyeldin]

Thanks. They both worked with the builtin webcam (Cheese and GUVCView).

I also found kamoso for KDE. But could not find in it a way to change
the webcam device and resolution (something we will need for the USB
web cam).

Will try the above with Paul.
