Linux WebCam
This is a discussion about Linux WebCam in the Linux Hardware category; Hey! I'm looking for a USB 2. 0 WebCam That has active Linux support. It needs to be able to cature at least 15fps at 640x480. Thanks! x) Jim Jim@xugle. com (don't bother spamming. . . only makes thunderbird's E-mail filters stronger).

I've used USB cameras with success when running GnomeMeeting.
You don't state what distro of Linux or what the application is. So hard to suggest too much. However, if your budget permits, consider a PCI card like Pinnacle or Hauppage.
They are TV tuner cards with S-Video and Composit inputs. Both can capture at a max of 30 fps. If you have a camera (an old video camera is great) you will have a much better system. (Also, you can watch TV while working). LOL
If the aforementioned is not practical, please be a bit more specific as to your distro, needs etc.
