I installed a Logitech 2 MP HD Webcam Pro 9000 with Built-in Microphone. This works very well on my Fedora system. Unfortunately, sound did not work with skype.

Step 1:
Use System > Preferences > Sound to open the Sound Preferences dialog. Click on the Input tab and choose your input source. If I disconnect the Logitech Pro 9000 while Fedora is running, my input device changes from "Webcam Pro 9000 Analog Mono" to "Internal Audio Analog Stereo".

Step 2:
I did not need to do this with Fedora 12, but, I learned about it from a friend running Windows. Open your skype options dialog and select the "Sound Devices" tab. Uncheck "Allow Skype to automatically adjust my mixer levels". With this enabled, there was no sound.

Happy skyping.
