Have you disabled Supermount?  If I'm not mistaken, a USB camera is seen as USB 
storage (maybe /dev/sda1??).  If Supermount is disabled, then you would have to 
manually mount it.  Is your usb hub powered?  Some USB devices require more power than 
what can be delivered from the computer's USB port and need a powered hub to operate 
reliably.
