Hey geeks!

I´m currently looking around for a web-cam that is compatible with Linux, more specifically Ubuntu (Feisty Fawn).
I don´t really like buggering around with ndiswrapper, so a camera with native drivers would be great, besides I like supporting companies that support Linux.

What web-cams have you managed to install successfully? Also what´s your favorite communication application you use with it?

Thanks in advance!

Don't have a webcam myself, but I use GAIM -new name PIDGIN, for all IM. it's good because it supports every IM protocol and allows meta-contacts for people you have on multiple IM services, aMSN provides webcam for MSN.
