Hello,
does anybody knows where to find a driver for usb web cam ?
try this website https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UVC
or this one http://wiki.debian.org/Webcam
dmesg does not report gspca in the debian distribution.
Do you know if it is integrated in the kernel ?
If somebody was able to connect a usb cam on his RPi,
could he please post a step by step how to.
I don't have a Pi or a webcam, but this post from the RPi forum seems hopeful:

Well, after enough repeated attempts to get uvcvideo to work in Debian, I loaded the ArchLinux build and plugged my webcam in and it just worked.
Guess I will use it.

thank you jbeale, i just tried with arch and it seems that there is a uvc driver asociated with my cam.
but sadly, i can't start the desktop gui.
When i do startx, i have a message, fatal server error: no screen found.
I dont 'know how to setup the driver for the "graphic card"
Did you use the current Arch distribution from http://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads ?
