not supported.

There's your problem. You'll need to see if there are Linux drivers that came with the webcam, and install them.

[dedanna1029]

Do you have both wx-config and wx-config-devel installed?

[jemadux]

damn where to find 'em ?

[dedanna1029]

Are they not in the repos for Kubuntu?

Okay, then.

Look at the second post here. It appears you need libwxgtkx.x-dev, or libwxgtkx.x-dev; I'm assuming these will be in your repos.

I found this from this search - I'm not finding much else.
