Note: the Ubuntu update Library also contains this driver, which can be automatically downloaded, compiled, and installed using the "m-a-I spca5xx" command, however, because the code in the library is not the latest, there may be problems with the driver of some cameras, it is recommended to manually download, compile and install the method.
D) Use the Camorama program to test the camera and its driver.
# Apt-get install camorama
Start the Camorama program from the Start Menu. If the driver works properly, a dynamic preview window is displayed in the program.
