Confirming the above comment. Works out of the box in Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx!

$ lsusb
Bus 006 Device 002: ID 046d:0920 Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Express

Notes:
1. Connect directly: Plug it directly to the usb on the back of your PC, do not use any usb hubs or 3rd party usb extensions
2. Skype: If you want to run it with skype install the package "lib32v4l-0" which contains the v4l1compat.so file for 32-bit applications:

sudo apt-get install ia32-libs lib32v4l-0

..Then execute this to load the 32-bit library:

LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib32/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype

Note #3: 32-bit Skype: Yes, skype is 32-bit even in 64-bit debian packages.
