web cams

I'm trying to get a web cam connected to my linux box. I've got a macally icecam and another made by dynex dx-wc101 (either would do the job). I didn't intend to use them with linux when I bought hem so I didn't look to see if there were drivers. I've looked all over for info on them but haven't found anything, let alone what drivers to use.

The comp is a p3 1ghz running gentoo with a 2.6 kernel.

thanks!

I purchased a dynex webcam and figured there would be drivers for it in linux. There must some kind of open source driver out there that works with my DX-WC100. Help appreciated. Thanks.
