I have rechecked thru Package Manager that 'usbutils' are installed.
In the virtual box when I try to mount webcam I get the following message
USB device 'USB camera' with UUID {c21966a6-d2e6-406b-add9-7cb5cb743228} is busy with a previous request. Please try again later.
Result Code:

I do not understand what this means.
My usb mouse is working well.
I have downloaded the driver for Philipos Funcam on Desktop
pwc-10.0.12-rc1.tar.bz2 ( available from
http://www.saillard.org/linux/pwc/files/
I extracted it but not able to install it.
Any advice is welcome. As I use Skype extensively, not having webcam - voice chat would be a problem for my total migration to Mint
Thanks in advance
