Ok, I had the same error on my HP mini.

The error message is totally misleading, it seems that webcam-server
tries to use V4L1 which fails with V4L2.

To get it working you can use the V4L1 compatibility wrapper like this:
(check where your v4l1compat.so is located and change if necessary)

LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so webcam_server

no error for me after this...

Happy hacking!
