My Webcam works!

Two versions back I installed the SPCAXX linux drivers for my webcam and got it to work after much fiddling. Then came Breezy Badger and my web cam stopped working, worse it would take the whole machine down if I used Camorama!
Yesterday I installed the Dapper Drake and I tried Camorama program and it failed with an error message (much better than killing the machine). On this page it says that it should just "work". I looked at the camera and thought, shouldn't there be a little green light that is on? Sure enough I followed the wire and the USB port wasn't plugged in. Plugged it in and started taking images right away! Now I'll go play with StopMotion.
