Slacko 5.4 on ASUS K52F
When I used to run Ubuntu, I managed to alter some settings in Gnome that eventually got Skype to have the video the right way up.
Trouble is, with Puppy, its a whole other different set of software.
Does anyone with an ASUS laptop know how to get around this issue?

You need v4l-utils. On an ASUS K52N with the same issue I compiled v4l-utils from ppa to solve the problem in lucid puppy:consentient wrote:Slacko 5.4 on ASUS K52F

Edit: ppa is changed, try:
http://linuxtv.org/downloads/v4l-utils/
If slacko 5.4 did not come with v4l-utils try to download the latest v4l-utils. Then compile with:
Code: Select all
./configure
make PREFIX=/usr
make install PREFIX=/usr DESTDIR=/root/my-documents/DIR
cd /root/my-documents
dir2pet DIR
mv DIR.pet v4l-utils-xxx.pet
Code: Select all
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype
