Hi Alex wish if it was that simple what you really need to find out what chip is on the device ok. Because the distributor M$ is just that a logo on that.OV9712 HD CMOS chip. And next year it may change. so I guess it would the make and model might help. That HD cam has been supported by the linux kernel since the 2.6 kernel. and most likely before.
I am happy you have it up and running in your distro.
I my self use a little HP cam in slackware,
