Hi, I have a Logitech quickcam pro. I spent a fair bit of time and effort trying to get it to work on Mandrake 10.0, and failed miserably... Mandrake 10.1 auto detected it, installed Gnome meeting, and it all just happened!
Checking the Hardware compatibility list sounds like a good idea...

Hi Ricardo, First of all, welcome to webcam hell. I'm kidding - but the biggest problem you will have is with hardware. Mandrake has a compatability page listing various hardware. http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/hardware.php3 Then, if you decide to go with gnome meeting, you will need to install video4linux at the backend. The webcam I have is not compatible and I couldn't be bothered getting another so I fell at the first hurdle - but I imagine if you get a compatible camera you'll be fine.
