Webcameras

Webcams normally use the [http://www.exploits.org/v4l/ video for linux (v4l)] framework. The Ubuntu kernel has support for v4l compiled into it.

You also need a driver for your camera. If it does not just work when you start e.g. xawtv, a good starting point to look for your camera is: http://www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/ (best use the search field with your manufacturer name). Some nice people have also made an application to build the latest driver for some Webcam's. [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Webcam EasyCam]
