A well supported webcam



Hi there,

I'd like to buy a webcam well supported in Linux (640x480 dpi and
1.3 Mpixel, perhaps with integrated microphone, should be enough for me).
The problem is that vendors don't say anything about the chipset their
webcams use, so how to figure out if a certain webcam is supported?
Maybe asking here if anyone has had such an experience... :-)

Is anyone using the Trust WB-3320X

(http://www.trust.com/products/product_detail.aspx?item=15354)

and/or the WB-3250p

(http://www.trust.com/products/product_detail.aspx?item=15082)?

Could anyone suggest me some other well supported model?

Many thanks in advance.
