			I was able to get a Quickcam Pro 9000 to work (which is also a UVC webcam) by doing the following (unsure which of these steps was the magic fix, i'll build another test box tomorrow and establish exactly which it was)

			* apt-get install uvccapture
			* apt-get install luvcview
			* hand edit /etc/motion/thread0.conf and change device line from '/dev/video0' to '/dev/uvcvideo' (note: this was reset to /dev/video0 on next reload, and seems to be working)
			* running 'motion -s'

			cheers -Leigh

I tried installing one of these on my core to use as a security camera, using instructions found here. Unfortunately I found that when I viewed the cam in my orbiter, nothing showed up! After consulting a few guides I found that this webcam required an update to the v4l drivers.

This command can be used to test if your system is able to use your webcam:

mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:width=640:height=480:device=/dev/video0 -fps 5

I then used instructions from http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/How_to_Obtain%2C_Build_and_Install_V4L-DVB_Device_Drivers to update the drivers.
