Lightbulb WEBCAM detected but can't get Image on kernel 2.6.25 ???


Dear all,
I am wkging with an embeded device called IMOTE2 (used in wireless sensor n/w), on which I have loaded kernel 2.6.25, and trying to attach a webcam (Logitech quickcam communicate deluxe 046d:0992), for capturing images.This webcam require UVC driver.

After loading kernel and filesystem , I am booting this device through hyperterminal and loading required modules:as follows---->>>>
=====================================================================
# lsmod

tos_mac 23724 0
usbhid 21636 0
usb_storage 38464 0
uvcvideo 53384 0
v4l2_common 11136 0
ohci_hcd 17960 0
usbcore 122524 5 usbhid,usb_storage,uvcvideo,ohci_hcd

i2c_pxa 7392 1
i2c_core 20016 3 v4l2_common,da9030,i2c_pxa
======================================================================

but when i give command
/usr/bin/vidcat -d /dev/video0 -f jpeg -p y > /root/test.jpg
it gives an error: Can't get image
