I use a "Logitech QuickCam Express" which seems to work just fine
through video4linux with the qce-ga [1] drivers ( on 2.4.23 and 2.6.0 ),
unfortunately not in the kernel.

Unfortunately I can't offer any comparison to how well it works, as I
haven't used any other webcam, nor used this one on OSes supported by
Logitech's drivers.

HTH,
