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... :-)

I can't suggest anything in particular as I've had horrible luck... But I
find that it's not the CAM part that's difficult, it's getting the
microphone to work.
