I'm trying to set up a Creative USB Webcam Live! I've installed Camelot 0.3.5 but when I open it I get an error message saying
Initializing Video4Linux input failed: Cannot open device /dev/video0: No such file or directory
which is indeed true. Problem, how can I get the software and hardware to see each other? -- Bob

Some debug info would be great - try looking at /var/log/messages when connecting/disconnecting the cam.
There are a lot of files in there, none of them seem to change when I plug/unplug my camera. Which one should I be looking for?
the actual <messages> file in /var/log
Post the results. Also take a look at http://opensource.creative.com/webcam.html It seems that you will need the spca5xx driver (not included on std openSUSE distro, I compiled it myself, works ok but contrast issues with my logitech)
I'm running a 64 bit system here, I'm not sure those drivers will work.
