Logitech g230 microphone detected not working install#
Unlike Crunch Bang Linux, PC Linux did not automatically install a video application to test the webcam on. Update: I tested the webcam on PC Linux 2010 Open Box edition. It seems that the condenser mike needs to be adjusted manually on Linux for more optimal sound, but sounds good on Windows with the Skype auto-adjustment feature. The Linux version of Skype is less advanced than the Windows XP version. I tried Skype on Crunch Bang Linux and Windows XP, this camera delivered good video in both environments. I concluded it was worth the extra money to get the webcams that were optimized for low light conditions (like this one). It seems that the older webcams were not sensitive to the frequency bands of many light bulbs. This is important to me, because many of the older webcams handle only a small range of lighting conditions, and make people look shadowy even with enough illumination coming from light bulbs.

The webcam adjusts to low light conditions (even without the software that helps to adjust to low light!). The picture was very clear, in fact the clearest of any of the webcams I have used so far (I have a lot of experience with about 5 others).

When I plugged in the webcam, Crunch Bang Linux recognized it immediately without needing to use the drivers on the CD-ROM. I have tested it on Crunch Bang Linux (which is built over Ubuntu 9.04, so the results I found should work for any Linux operating system that has an Ubuntu base, like Linux Mint and Xubuntu, it will most likely work with any Debian base as well, but I am less certain about this).

I am happy to share that I found that this webcam is Linux friendly.
