I am using Linux Rebecca and an HP laptop. It has a built in camera which is sub-par to the Lifecam HD-3000 usb camera I wish to use. How can I change HELLO to recognize the USB camera?

Hi,

As of now, there is now setting for HELLO to recognize an external camera. Instead HELLO uses the deafult/installed camera in your computer.

Thank you. Using an external camera would be a great addition.
