Since there isn’t anything extremely relevant in google when searching for “gentoo quickcam pro 9000” – I hope this helps someone. I solicited advice from the community for a webcam a couple months back and my girlfriend used the comments to buy me this model for Christmas. It works great, so thanks for recommending it people. =) As Marcus Hanwell [wrote][2] some 7 months ago, it is easy to setup. To set this cam up, make sure you have a recent kernel (>=2.6.26 – don’t quote me on exact version.

Dear lazyweb, In your experiences, what has been the best webcam to use with Gentoo? I would like to use skype or some other video messaging app to talk to my girlfriend studying abroad next semester but I haven’t used (or setup) a webcam before. Thanks all.
