HasciiCam, Google Chat/Hangouts, what??)

Further to DenverD’s post, the C310 does work in openSUSE-12.3.

My understanding is it is a UVC compatible webcam (and it uses the uvc driver) which comes with a basic openSUSE. I prefer to test my UVC compatible web with the application (packaged by packman packagers) guvcview

Some speculation on my part : Note if you are using Skype application with your webcam, then you really should follow the guidance here to get Skype working: Skype - openSUSE Wiki
