you can install only the kernel from lenny (with related modules if you are
using any extentions)
the uvc webcams is said to become a standard as microsoft is trying to
standardize a lot of hardware vendors for their certification, so buying a
uvc webcam and using a recent kernel will have a pay off for you.
Applications as Skype also support uvc webcams very well (but read about if
skype or the app you want to use supports the particular one, you are going
to buy)
