Thanks Brad,
I wonder if I have to add stuff to fstab,-- I can access the camera as 'root' 
now, but not as a user.
If I try as user:
An error occurred in the io-library ('Could not claim the USB device'): Could 
not claim interface 0 (Operation not permitted). Make sure no other program 
or kernel module (e.g. dc2xx or stv680) is using the device and you have 
read/write access to the device.

What device?
Thanks...
