Well, the subject basically explains it. The webcam is detected, the dev node /dev/video0 created. But, when any application tries to read the node, it can't. Same problem in windows.
Cheese outputs:
WARNING **: Failed trying to get video frames from device '/dev/video0'.
And leavs black screen. Running Arch-2.6.39, but tried Arch-3.0.1 from repos too. It feels like the camera just does not want to work. Had simmilar problem with my wireless card, when the b43 driver hang it, solved it by plugging laptop out of power for 1 minute. For this it does not help.
Laptop is : Emachine e525,
