Camorama in 2010 beta1[Solved]

[Sleepy]

I installed Camorama from Synaptic for using a webcam and my system doesn't seem to like it.It comes with the 'system not responding'tab and freezes.
Having tried twice with the same results I uninstalled it.Is there some kind of alternative that could work?

Cheese works for me.
It's a GTK / GNOME app, but it does a fairly decent job.

[Sleepy]

I cant seem to get Cheese working either.I wonder if I'm missing some kind of dependencies.

Did you check if the system is detecting your cam at all?

[Sleepy]

Yes the cam shows up fine from in Control Panel.

Does anybody have further clues as to how I can get my Conceptronic webcam running?It works fine in LXDE and Gnome with Jasper and dkms-uvcvideo installed   but dkms-uvcvideo doesn't feature in the 2010-beta 1 repository.
Both Cheese and Camorama detect the presence of the webcam but I cant seem to get any video.

Thanks for any suggestions.
