Which model of locally available USB webcams work with 2.4.24 kernel. I used to use the dlink duc 300 (ov511 chip), which is not available any more. The dlink DSB-C300 uses divio nw802 (or something similar) which produces a horrid black image :-( . Both of the above have 640x480 pixel resoluion@15fps. similar resolution webcam would be good but not essential (i will settle for CIF /SIF).

have you tried the logitech webcam express ? this one works with 2.4.24
Both of the above have 640x480 pixel resoluion@15fps. similar
i am not sure if this is really possible (640*480*15*3(colours)*8) assuming 1 byte for each colour... is simply not possible with USB 1.1, where BW is 12Mbits/sec. the best i got through USB was 6 fps.

No. Was not sure if it would work. The resolution is SIF. Thanks will try it.

That is the raw video. These devices use some sort of compression (mjpeg afaik). I am absolutely certain that they do 640x480@15fps but not 24bit color, only 16bit.
