Linux Driver for Quickcam USB cameras
This site hosts the Linux driver for the QuickCam Express and other QuickCam-related and QuickCam-compatible USB web cameras. The original work was done by Georg Acher and was known as qce-ga; Jean-Frederic Clere took that driver and created the first Video4Linux (V4L) driver, enabling popular V4L applications such as Xawtv to display pictures from the webcam. Since then, a group of developers around the world have evolved the driver into its current state, adding support for new cameras and chipsets as they have become available. In the process, the driver became known as qc-usb to reflect the fact that it supports a wide variety of USB-attached QuickCam cameras, not just the QuickCam Express.
Current Version
Supported Cameras
The qc-usb driver is known to work with the following webcams:
- Dexxa Webcam
- Labtec Webcam (old model)
- LegoCam
- Logitech QuickCam Express (old model)
- Logitech QuickCam Notebook (some models)
- Logitech QuickCam Web
Generally, any USB camera with a USB vendor ID of 0x46d and a USB product ID of 0x840, 0x850, or 0x870 (so, 0x46d:0x840, for example), should work. See How to find the USB ID of a camera.
Download
- The qc-usb driver was originally focused on the QuickCam Web, but should now work with all cameras that work also with qce-ga. It contains a superset qce-ga’s features and is the preferred driver. Almost everyone will use this driver. Download it from our Sourceforge release page.
- The CVS versions available by following the Sourceforge CVS usage instructions. The module names are quickcam and qc-usb.
Installation
This section explains how to compile and install the qc-usb driver for the Linux kernel. For the most current instructions, please read the README that comes with the driver. These instructions explain how to compile the driver as a standalone module, which is the only option at this time because the driver has not (yet) been integrated into the mainline kernel.
The following requirements must be met:
- Kernel >= 2.2.18, kernel 2.4.x, or kernel 2.6.x with USB and V4L support. If you are running a version 2.2 kernel, you really need to upgrade to at least 2.4.
- Kernel source for the kernel you are running. The symbolic link /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build should point to the source directory.
- A working installation of gcc >= 2.95
Unsupported Cameras
Other webcams produced by Logitech are supported under Linux but use a separate driver. The following Logitech webcams are not compatible with this driver and are supported by other drivers:

Help us help you! If you are having compilation, installation, or usage problems, we’ll need at least the following information to be able to help you:
- Your Linux distribution and distribution version
- The driver version with which you are having trouble
- The kernel version (the output of uname -a should be sufficient
- The camera’s vendor and product IDs (the output of lsusb when the camera is attached should be fine
- The camera sensor type, which is printed in the system log when the module loads
- The output of /sbin/lsmod | grep -i usb
- Any relevant output from /var/log/messages

Also, try removing and installing «Cheese», in fact try this before anything else.. Cheese supports almost any cam without any issue.Do you use the packae manager to install packages or do you use the command line? Not that it would make much of a difference but it is a good practice to use the command line as the dependencies are also taken care of(at least it tells you if you need an extra package).
