The only problems you might encounter are one of general annoyance on
your part after a few goes of rebooting your machine just to use your
webcam :)
.. and that while you're running with a non-SMP kernel you'll only be
using one of your presumed more-than-one CPUs. Which probably won't
really be a problem at all.
I actually have a QuickCam Pro 4000 too. I haven't tried very hard to
get it working yet. Perhaps I should take a look at it.
