Similar problem in jaunty. The camera is recognized, and udev inserts
the correct(?) kernel module: quickcam. However the video device is not
created. (No /dev/video*)
Bus 004 Device 005: ID 046d:08f6 Logitech, Inc. Quickcam Messenger Plus
$ dmesg | tail -4

this link. I applied that patch, compiled and copied the related modules.
I now have a video device created by udev. Th
