Can anybody help me work out how to automatically set permissions for my 
video4linux USB webcam device. If I modprobe "pwc" as root, it loads 
fine, but I still have to manually set permissions for myself to access 
/dev/video0 (and the actual /dev/v4l/video0 that /dev/video0 is a 
symlink to) as a user. Suggestions? I didn't seem to have this problem 
on my last setup...
