Interact with your computer
Your computer provides you various ways to navigate the screen.
Use the camera
• Take pictures or record videos by using the Cheese application. The indicator next to the camera is on
when the camera is in use.
• If you use other apps that support photographing, video chatting, and video conference, the camera starts
automatically when you enable the camera-required feature from the app.
Note: IR function is currently limited in Linux. Make sure the regular camera mode is selected if you see gray
lines.
