In my case, Logitech QuickCam for Notebooks works perfectly with Fedora 9, but with Skype when I try to activate the webcam, the program aborts without any hints about the problem. You could try another choice like Ekiga, although I'm afraid to say it doesn't reach the quality in video than Skype does (I can receive video with Skype) Another option could be AMSN. I got the webcam working with this one as well.
