    How to find a better driver for a webcam with a terrible quality?

    Hi, "USB cameras are definitely 'pot luck', depending on the chipset used." I think you must be right. I have a Logitech like that one. I can't remember the exact model name. May be 920. There is an SN on a tag attached to the wire but It didn 't work for long. I bought it may be 7-8 years...

    How to find a better driver for a webcam with a terrible quality?

    Okay, thanks a lot for your help. My intuition is that the cam is of very low quality. The driver is not the problem. This PC must be 8 years old. This can explain that.

    No sound notifications from Gmail for new messages in 3 browsers

    Hi, I installed Google Chrome, and it's the same. No notification sounds in the three browsers I have. So I guess that the issue is related to Linux than. Nothing is perfect. I will continue using Thunderbird, for the moment, no choice.

    Hi, I searched a little through the search function of site, but didn t find the topic. I confess that I didn't read all the pages of the results. The thing is that someone gave me an old "all in one" PC, with a very nice and powerful config. I installed the last version of Linux Mint and am...
