Oh.
Aren't Quickcams supported under linux? I think I saw something familiar
last time I compiled a kernel, somewhere under "Video for linux". That
must have been over a year ago, so I'm not 100% positive.

Right now I want my Logitech USB-quickcam hooked up on a linux server,
integrated with my favourite Apache with some nifty(R) webpages. Hrm.
