I just dusted off an old Logitech USB camera (a Quickcam?--it's not labelled anywhere) that my cousin gave me a year ago and I never used. I downloaded the qc-usb source, compiled and got it working on 2.4.21 within a few minutes (following the README, of course). Great work Quickcam Express Project!

I'll expand the troubleshooting section on compiling stand-alone drivers, though I hate to reinforce the notion that linux is an OS by programmers _for_ programmers...

PS, in my logs on loading the camera:
Oct 25 14:45:27 K7 kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:02.2-3, assigned address 3 Oct 25 14:45:27 K7 kernel: usb.c: USB device 3 (vend/prod 0x46d/0x840) is not claimed by any active driver.
Oct 25 14:50:07 K7 kernel: usb.c: registered new driver quickcam
Oct 25 14:50:07 K7 kernel: quickcam: QuickCam USB camera found (driver version QuickCam USB $Date: 2003/06/30 10:04:40 $)
