The linux driver is called linux-uvc or uvcvideo:
http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/

But, it only works with UVC compliant camera--just because your camera has USB 
does not mean it is UVC compliant. Also, there are multiple UVC video formats 
(payloads), one of which is DV. dvgrab in CVS (soon to be release 3.0) now 
supports the combination of linux-uvc and UVC-DV compliant camera.
