Giving more information would be a start.  Is this a USB or parallel
port camera?  What kernel are you using?  What version of the driver?
What is the output of dmesg just after loading the modules?  Do you have
a /proc/cpia/video0 file?  If the camera is properly detected, does
dmesg report any error messages after trying to run the client?
