You can first find out what you need and what you have.
Open a terminal and use the command "lsusb" to find the number sequence for the webcam. It will have two numbers divided by a ":". See if it is this one, "046d:0825".
My quick search tells me that there are various problems; some have sound, some a picture, but there are reports of success.
What linux distribution are you using? What does "dmesg" tell you?
