I hear Philips webcams work well under linux. Here's a website to check out: http://www.linux-sxs.org. Find "USB" on the menu on the left and then click on "USB webcams" in the frame that opens up to the right. As far as software there's gnome-meeting. I've never used it so I don't know. I would recommend staying away from Intel webcams as I have one and I'm having trouble finding information about getting it going under linux. Anyone get an Intel pro-pc cam working?
