Try installing the camorama package.

Re: web cam

Is the camera working? Are you able to use it with other programs?

The web cam works fine in skype in windows vista

Re: web cam

Does it work in any other linux programs, such as cheese or camorama, or my personal favorite for cameras that use the uvcvideo driver, guvcview? Most Logitech cameras use the uvcvideo driver.

OK, let's see if your camera is being recognized by the system. Open a terminal, and enter:

lsusb

and see if there is an entry for your camera. In mine it looks like this;
