Hi,

I have a logitech quickcam.

Although, I don't know if your particular camera is supported.

Personally, I always avoided Logitech because their webcams really seem to be incompatible. I had better luck with a model from Aiptek (AEG inside).

Anybody have any luck with Gateway branded web cams? It's fairly old (not sure if that will make a difference) and works pretty decently without any additional drivers under Windows (I'm assuming a generic adapter under FreeBSD would work here, too?). I've not tried it before on Linux (not had a reason too, as before Skype there really weren't any widely used video conferencing apps).
