If you do a 'dmesg' command from a command prompt or look at the dmesg tab in System Stats do you see any messages about your camera? If not, unplug it, wait 30 seconds and then plug it back in and look at the dmesg file again. Newer messages should be at the bottom.
I've not used xawtv but a while back I added a dsl extention called "motion" that can be used with webcams to capture snapshots. You can find it in MyDSL online. I think it's in the multimedia section.
-------------- ======== Note ========= The DSL Forum Search default is 'OR' If you search for "cat dog" you will get all "cat" posts and all "dog" posts. If you search for "cat AND dog" you will only find results that contain BOTH "cat" and "dog" Add '*' for wildcards, " cat* and dog* "
