Does it work when you tell it to use its own colormap (option -C)?  
Which window manager do you use?  I'm using mwm, but I can swap for twm 
or fvwm for testing -- I know they deal with colormaps differently.  
Also, what else do you have running?  If something like Netscape's 
using all of the default colormap xqcam's not smart enough to 
automatically flip to a private map.

I assume the stardard 'qcam' is still working?
