  I am not sure that will work. It depends upon what application you
use. In Fedora 11 my Dell integrated cam 'just worked'; in F12 the 'evo'
web conference tool doesn't seem to recognise it - I get an error about
'no openGL found'
   If you have problems, and can find a 'live' F11 to check with, it
might be worth testing.
