There is no "Linux messenger." There are several clients available for Linux, however. The most popular one, Pidgin, does not support webcams. aMSN (for Windows Live Messenger) and Kopete (for all protocols) does. Virtually all webcams are supported out of the box in the Linux kernel, so no extra work is needed, other than to use a capable client.
There is no program called "Lunix Messenger." There isn't even a program called "Linux Messenger." There are several different instant messengers available for Linux. Pidgin does not support webcams, while Kopete does. You need to specify what program you are using.
You CAN webcam chat on Windows Live Messenger. When you are talking to someone, under their profile picture there should be a webcam button (if they have a webcam, that is). Click that and you can invite them to webcam chat with you.
Microsoft does not make a messenger for Linux. However, several Linux clients can connect to the Windows Live Messenger network, such as Pidgin, Kopete, and aMSN.
I cannot get the webcam on a Samsung Galaxy Tab to work through MSN Windows Live Messenger because all the apps available from the Android Market do NOT have a button for the webcam function. Yahoo Mess. supports webcam chat on tablet , but MSN Mess. does not.

A virtual webcam on Linux is a software-created camera device that provides video to applications as if it were a physical webcam. It can receive video from prerecorded files, software, or other supported sources. Visit_ camlooper_com
It depends on the brand of webcam, whether it is built in or not, and if you are using Mac, Windows, Linux, etc.
click on the icon that looks like a webcam next to the display photo and then you will be on webcam

No. There are several instant messenger clients that run ON Linux, though. It depends which 'distro' and window manager you're using - and the messenger type programs tend to be multi protocol in Linux, so you can connect to MSN, Yahoo, AIM, ICQ etc all from the same program. In a KDE based distro, you'll usually find 'kopette' and in a Gnome based distro, you'll often find 'pidgin' formerly called GAIM. There are lots of others, just check the package manager Webcam support is either basic or non existent though
