Setting up Webcam on SuSE 9.1

I've looked throught he forums and nothing really helps with setting up webcam from scratch.
I have a Logitech QuickCam, pugged into the USB, which sane-find-scanner thinks is:

found USB scanner (vendor=0x041e, product=0x401c) at libusb:001:002
# Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by
# SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage.

Now what do I do?

Thanks,
