Try holding your computer upside down
- simonsquiff 16y agoThose trying to hunt down the section, it says this: "3 This camera module is known to be mounted upside-down in some notebooks. Applications that use the libv4l library should display the video correctly, as libv4l detects upside-down cameras and rotates the image automatically. See Hans de Goede's post on the linux-uvc-devel mailing list for more information. For applications that don't use libv4l, try holding your computer upside-down. "
- macemoneta 16y agoIt's a joke. If you're not using v4l, then you're rolling your own. So you either have to fix it yourself, or hold it upside down. :)

- anthonyb 16y ago...and shaking it?
- Osiris 16y agoThat's the best workaround idea I've ever heard.
- slug 16y agoI ran into the flipped camera issue with skype on my asus laptop. Skype doesn't use that library, so an easy way to solve it is to LD_PRELOAD, like explained here: http://aeminium.org/slug/software/tips/skype-asus-flipped.html http://aeminium.org/slug/software/tips/skype-asus-flipped.ht... A quick googling will show you several pages with the same workaround.
