PS3 camera with Puppy 5.28

I'm running Linux Puppy 5.28 on a Compaq C700 laptop (1.43GHz cpu and 3.0Gb RAM). Is there software available to let me use my PS3 camera?

I did a quick reshuffle. Puppy 5.28 replaced Wary Puppy. The video card was replaced with a LinkSys PCI network card and plugged into the router via a cable.
No connection problems and the on-baord video works fine.

I found an easy way to solve the problem. I reformatted the flash drive and now keep only my text files, pictures and my bookmarks on it. I do not save the system when I shut the computer down. That makes each boot-up just like using Ubuntu Live and the computer has no problems connecting to the rou...

suddenly problems

After several weeks of seamless operation, now the system will not connect to my router via the wireless module. It recognizes the network and has an 88 for signal strength but will not connect. It isn't the router or the module; plugging the module into three other computers (including another also...

Puppy projects

I'm a new Puppy user ( http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=87038 ) but am somewhat familiar with Ubuntu and currently have Mint 14 Nadia on my laptop. I saw a thread asking about what the minimum system requirements are for Puppy. I don't know if this qualifies, but it's as minimal as I hav...

The machine long ago was given 1.5Gb of PC3200 RAM, the Celeron processor replaced with a 2.4GHz 400MHz FSB Pentium and a 256Mb 3D-Fusion nVidia FX5500 PCI video card. ...
