I did find a lot of questions, but that's about it. I run Linux, QEMU/KVM 0.12.5 and have loaded windows XP. My webcam is being recognized by Windows XP, but all I get is a black screen when I try to use it. I use the -usbdevice host:vendor:id directive. The light goes on (and never off again until I reboot the physical machine). Since this problem is not new, I just wonder what might be wrong? Regards, Frans.
