if there is no 3D involved i think you rather take this then using gem. most people i know working with linux and webcams are using the ones from philips. i think 740 (yellow rubber focus, not red) but i tried logitech and it worked as well, have a look on the supported models list of the pwc-driver: http://www.smcc.demon.nl/webcam/

Yes, i can see the live-picture in My Computer where the Quickcam is listed. (Installed the newest driver from Logitech) The NVIDIA Card is a GeForce FX 5950 Ultra (just updated the driver, did not help) [gemlist] works, but as soon as i hit enter after writing [pix_video] pd crashes.

Can you access the QcP4K from XP's Image Capture control panel? Can you capture streaming video? Can you do either after Logitech's software (minimal install) is installed?
The Quickcam Pro 4000 certainly works in w2k, xp, OSX, in Pd+Gem. I always do the minimum installation of Logitech software (drivers only). None of the other fluff. What's the version of Logitech software you installed on XP? The latest may not be the greatest. Did you install it from an account with Administrator privileges (should be).
On the Mac, a fully functional (read: not necessarily latest) version of Quicktime is required.

i installed the software from logitech's website (a 37mb download) there was no option on what you want to have installed or not.

i see, so my QT might be too recent.
if i do the [dialog[ for [pix_video] on osx the QuickTime dialog pops up but is completely greyed out. after that the only way how to return is to kill the pd process.

There should be a DirectX icon in the Windows Control Panel. At least there used to be. Then if it's not immediately obvious what the version is, look under help-About. Sorry I'm not booting Win right now so I can't take a look. If it's not there, System Properties is probably a good place to look.
