I am also interested in this issue. I have a similar problem with kopete, which does not recognize the camera. On the other hand, luvcview and mplayer use the camera with no problems. I remerber that kopete used to work with the camera (several months ago), so that may be related to newer kernels. Searching the net I found a hint that it may be hal-related, but I had no time to investigate it further. It may be that hal sees the camera as v4l and not v4l2 [1]. My hw is an eeepc 900 with lenny and kernel 2.6.30 and acpi from backports.
