Did you do 'yum search uvc'? I don't remember the off the top of my head what packages you'll need but according to [1], it should support your webcam: 046d:09b0 Acer OrbiCam (Acer notebooks) Logitech from [1] also: Linux 2.6.26 and newer includes the Linux UVC driver natively. You will not need to download the driver sources manually unless you want to test a newer version or help with development. the UVC 1.1.1 works for both my Logitech Quickcam STX, Orbit MP, and Lenovo T420 integrated webcam.
