      I have a webcam that is directly recognized by other distros like linux mint.
      But it isnìt found by my antix 19
      lsusb finds it:
      Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0c45:6366 Microdia

      what can I do?

        Searching this on google gave many many reports. Maybe one of them is related.

        Does a certain app recognize it in LM or does it appear on the desktop there?
        It may be related to kernel or missing firmware. try using dmesg to find any error related to the device, for example, connect the device aand execute in terminal:
        dmesg | tail -20
        to see (the last 20 lines of dmesg) what happens to the device, how it is detected, if there are any errors, etc.
