I am curious about a few things and i did a little looking around at some of the sites people have suggested my the webcams they have there are not that good i need a webcam with a high CCD sensor for poor lighting enviroments and because they are the best webcams to get for the money you will spend.

There is the logitech quickcam 4000 pro but the drivers i found for that one don't work after compiling them my usb pci card and my network card failed on start up.

It is getting a little frustrating now seeing how i will more than likely have to use windows to webcam with my friends and family and i hate using that god awful operating system so much.

Can we consider video conferencing a weak link in Linux seeing how we do lack proper drivers for up to date webcams that have high quality CCD sensors like Creative labs pc-cam 600, pc-cam 750 and logitech quickcam 4000 pro .

And by the way i am running redhat 8.0

I know very little about Webcams and Linux (or Webcams in general).

Have you searched around for drivers and/or support etc.?

See if these G4L search results for 'quickcam 4000 pro' (http://www.google.com/linux?hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=quickcam+4000+pro&btnG=Google+Search) find anything to help.

www.linux-usb.org may also help.

Well i will have to see if ican do some digging and see what all i can find but that cam is a pain in the butt when it comes to linux. But something will come my way and i will find the answer to my problem sooner or later can't give up now. I am too close
