Hi there, just a hint for folks who may need it... The USB microphone of my Philips SPC 620 NC never worked with Linux. I could never use the mic with Skype.
A few days agos, when I installed a dual boot system with Windows Vista I noticed something interesting: after installing the Windows drivers and using the cam/mic with Skype under Windows it suddenly started to work under Linux as well! My guess is, the Windows driver loads necessary firmware into the camera that makes the microphone work under Linux. So, if you have a (USB) webcam and its microphone does not work with Linux I would suggest to use the cam under Windows with the Windows driver it may help to make the cam work under Linux.
