This messages part is irrelevant to Your webcam - You either had webcam
connected when PC booted and messages about webcam are closer to
messages start, or Your webcam isn'n detected. What will print "lsusb"
command?
You should get someone as:
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0458:006a KYE Systems Corp. (Mouse Systems)
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
and appropriate part of /var/log/messages should be as this:

(You probably gets only first part, when udev will not find correct
driver for it)

@Marko: What you say is actually false... For example, even if you have
the Oracle's Vbox (That's the one I use)
in a Non-Supportive System, the hardware that you connect to the VM is
not going to be recognized, because it's like
you're not plugging anything to the PC.
To verify what I'm saying, Plug an iPhone into a Fresh F12 or even 13
installation and then try to use it inside Oracle's vbox
with windows, the VM is not going to recognize it until you install the
proper packages to give linux support for it (if I'm not wrong, F12
is not going to recognize it at all) and After installing the proper
libraries in F13 you might not have full support for it inside Linux,
However,
you're going to be able to use it inside the VM With iTunes without any
problem.
in the case of the webcam, the PC does not recognize it and is like I'm
not plugging anything to the Windows 7 VM.
@Frantisek: The webcam is not recognized, lsusb does not print anything
useful, this is the output with the webcam connected:
[levick@LevickPC ~]$ lsusb
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 04f2:0841 Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 1784:0006 TopSeed Technology Corp.
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0461:4d0f Primax Electronics, Ltd
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 058f:6366 Alcor Micro Corp. Multi Flash Reader
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
[levick@LevickPC ~]$
Wich is the same if the wecam is not plugged in.
I might try to find a real Windows Host to try it in that computer...
I'll be cheking this thread. Any help would be useful,
Thanks Again, Have a Nice Day.

I not know what are Your USB devices:
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 1784:0006 TopSeed Technology Corp.
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0461:4d0f Primax Electronics, Ltd
But when lsusb print same output regardless webcam is connected or no,
then there is some weird, device should be listed, no matter when it's
driver exist or no.
Which distro and kernel version You have?
Isn't cable to camera too long?
You tried connect it to different USB ports?
Also, when You have notebook/netbook, there may be situation, when USB
ports aren't capable supply sufficient power to USB device (I suppose
that webcam hasn't own power supply). You may disconnect unnecessary USB
devices from Your PC and try connect webcam again.
Also You may try connect webcam to other PC (booting e.g. from Fedora
Live CD). When lsusb isn't present on it, You can use command:
cat /proc/bus/usb/devices
