Try searching in the Hardware Compatibility List (hcl) section.

All of these cards are listed in the LQ HCL and seem to be working without trouble.
The only way you'll get the software made by the maker is to see it written on the side of the box. But the video4linux driver and bttv pretty much make it possible to use these cards with ease. The Pinnacle seems to be recommended and works better under Linux.
