I guess it works with some keyboards, mice, and a scanner, but the USB
QuickCam is not supported.  I remember seeing some talk about it though.
Only the parallel port version is supported right now.  The places to
watch are GPhoto http://www.gphoto.org/ and SANE
http://www.mostang.com/sane/ .  I don't have any USB devices myself, I've
just read about it. :)
