[PD] webcam recommendations which work in Linux

[Ivica Ico Bukvic]

Hi all,

I've seen a lot of discussion recently on the list regarding which webcam to
use but none of the recommendations seem feasible. They are either
discontinued hard-to-find products or they simply don't work. For this
reason, I was wondering if anyone has a recommendation which webcam to get
for Linux if I want a balance between fps, resolution, and stability. I also
read about IP cameras but am not sure if these can be interfaces with gem.

Any help is most appreciated!
