From the mandrake hardware certification database I found that mostly the logictech webcams are the only option pretty much.

 

[Webcam] AIPTEK apc300 (Mandriva Linux 2006, x86)

Compatible

 

[Webcam] LOGITECH quickcam xpress (Mandriva Linux 2006, x86)

Compatible

 

[Webcam] PHILIPS (Mandriva Linux 2006, x86)

Note that for the Philips based webcams - the ones that use the pwc driver, you have to have contrib added (see easy-urpmi link at the top of each page here), and do:

urpmi dkms-pwc

to have the full vga resolution. And forget about the sxga resolution shots these can take according to the box it came in, the sensor is only vga, the rest is done in software on windows...

Is there any particular model you're interested in? The usb linux website may help you further:
