Anyone have issues scanning an XPUB into Sparrow on Linux?

Damn thing just won't pick up.

Laptops have shitty webcams, what sometimes helps is putting a white piece of paper behind the qr code device you are trying to scan. I assume you have already tried playing with the density/brightness?

Yup, played with brightness but Linux laptops must have even shittier web cams. 😂

That paper trick worked though! 🙏

Paper trick works 95% of the time for me

I refocused a Logitech C270 webcam to use just for Sparrow on Linux. It works really well, but I wish the regular camera worked worth a crap. It's focused at about 8 inches, and it'll read just about any QR now.
