Well, as far as the suid, it would get you working without having
to do �su� everytime.  Is it a good answer?  No.
I have a Logitech quickcam as well (I don�t know about the 3000
part), and my setup consisted of pluging it in.  The only thing I
can figure is that you either have a higher default security than
I, or it�s the devfs thing.  I only say devfs, because it�s the
one thing I don�t use.  I have had problems with zip drives, flash
card readers, pda, I think even my scanner has had problems.  When
I disable devfs, everything starts working.  I don�t remember if
you said you use devfs or not, but I don�t have a clue what else
it could be.  You just shouldn�t have to start hacking your system
to pieces - like I said, it works fine here.  Logic would say, it
has to be something fairly obvious.
