How did you test this? Did you use any application?

Where are the images? It is preferred that you post your images to one
of the free image hosting sites such as imageshack or picfu.

1. What is the output of command lsusb?
2. Try running command 'gstreamer-properties' (without quotes). It
will open a small application. In Video Tab, Input section see if you
see your webcam as input device. If you see it then select it and
click test.

Hope this helps.
