Thanks very much Mr. Sandeep Raghuraman - for replying to my problem.

I have about 15 days back installed 'Cheese' and tried it then, but then, it
was still not getting detected at all. It was saying no device found.

I tried it with XP - and it is working with skype, Yahoo Messenger & just
simply to take pictures within the office staff.

Let me also try to get his into the Ubuntuforums.org for help.

If you have any other suggestions please let me know.

thanks once again,
