What does /sbin/lsusb show? Is the camera there?

One app that I find works well with webcams, as long as they are detected is 
"Camstream".

I can appreciate the frustration. there are similar problems on some sound 
cards, and TV tuner cards, etc.

It may be worth trying a different webcam. The lifetec LT9388 using the ov511+ 
driver, which I have, works ok. See what's available, and check them out 
before buying.

Don't give up.

Nigel.
