The Webcam HOWTO - The Linux Documentation Project

• Zoom Telephonics ZoomCam III USB (model 1598)
2.3.5. Logitech (formerly Connectix) Quickcam Support
The QuickCam VC USB and parallel port model webcams are supported by the driver offered here. A kernel
patch and recompile are necessary for support of this model.
The Quickcam driver is represented by two different projects that offer two different flavors of driver for
certain Quickcam models, both of which are stand−alone drivers that do not require a kernel patch or
recompile. The qce−ga and qc−usb drivers support the following models:
• Logitech (earlier models of) Quickcam Express
• Quickcam Web
• Legocam
• Dexxa Webcam
• Labtec Webcam
The qc−usb driver is more experimental but reportedly works better on some models such as the Quickcam
Web. Also, I have recieved correspondence that newer versions of the Logitech Quickcam Express no longer
work with the above drivers; instead this page offers an experimental driver that claims to support the newer
model.
Note to Redhat users: The qce−ga driver doesn't compile properly using the modified kernel source provided
in Redhat 9, but a fix is available here.
Some Logitech camera models are supported by the Philips driver in Section 2.3.8.
