First off, I'd like to thank the creaters of DSL. I'm normally a Windows user, and was unable to make the complicated switch to Linux. But DSL was easy, boot it from the CD, make a partition, follow the exact instructions, and then install DSL to the hard drive. Dude, this thing smokes windows! I don't even know why I'm keeping WIndows on my machine, I mean, it's not like it's faster than Linux, or by any means the only operating system installed on my machine.
I've got a couple questions for some of you veterans. Can I still connect a webcam DSL like I (would) be able to in Windows? And, can I mount a Compact Flash flash card put inside of a PCMCIA-CF adapter?

Go here to see if there is linux support for your web cam.  Your card reader should work fine.

If so, go to the myDSL respository and try out the gqcam.dsl extension and see if it works with your webcam.

Good Luck.
