Can't get my HP Webcam work

Hi all , I use lshal and see Arch has detected my Webcam as HP Webcam
but after I downloaded ov51x-jpeg and compiled it and modprobe its kernel module , I still can't get my HP Webcam work , how come ?

Thanks...

ghosTunix.org:/home/ghostm55# lshal | grep Webcam
  info.product = 'HP Webcam'  (string)
  usb_device.product = 'HP Webcam'  (string)
  usb.interface.description = 'HP Webcam'  (string)

Just checking that it isn't just a regular usb webcam, served by

modprobe usbvideo

?
