Now you can catch the criminal! Take a high res pic of the print and then this can be used to find who did it!

I kind of wonder wether there is a place where I can complain though. The different postal services will probably just keep pointing the finger to each other.
well, I tried (even had to install a windows 98 in a vmware to get to the pictures because this camera is not supported under linux) but I fail at it. I guess the stupid cam sucks too much (it's a cheap one anyway: trust familycam 500, says it has 3.3 megapixels but it seems to be insufficient) no matter what I try I can never take a picture sharp enough so that it actually shows the fracture. I'll try if I can find someone with a better cam though. :rant:
But isn't Linux supposed to support it as a USB drive? Worst case scenario, try running an update with the camera plugged in and turned on.
it's messily supported via the spca5xx driver (not as usb drive though, that would've been nice) but I have gotten the pictures off it (via the windows install, oh the shame) and it's too blurry up close to a razor like that, you can't discern anything and from further away the fracture doesn't show because it's small of course. :|
I've never been one for taking pictures so I never bothered to buy a camera myself and my mother's new good one is an older analog one (she didn't like the digital experiment). Quite annoying.
Which distro are you using?
ubuntu. why? :)
Ahh it's Debian-based, so there should be plenty of support for it. I'm surprised the USB driver isn't doing the trick.
Time for pictures! I finally bought myself a digital camera. It's a big zip file so I uploaded it on one of those storage sites.
it seems there where problems with the rapidshare link so I've uploaded it to a new location which allows you to download directly. :)
