Greetings,

Big thanks to everyone who replied, I appreciate the input.

I got things working to some extent simply by creating the /dev/video0 
device node, thanks to some instructions found on Google. The I plugged 
in the webcam, started xawtv4, and voila, there was my big face on-screen.

Alas, xawtv4 is the only app I have working. Luvcview, motv, freej, all 
start okay, the camera's light comes on, but no video appears in their 
displays. I'll keep playing with their configuration files, I'm sure I'm 
missing some detail.

It's a start. :)

Best,

dp
