Using a USB camera in Severn

Some time back I bought an UltraPort USB camera for my IBM ThinkPad. It
works great with NetMeeting and other apps under W2K, but isn't supported
under XP (another good reason not to upgrade).

Just for giggles and grins, I decided to try it with Severn. Lo and
behold, 'lsusb' sees it as Bus 001 Device 004. "Very cool," I thought,
then "OK, now what?"

Can someone tell me what device in /dev this corresponds to, and suggest a
couple of Severn applications I might be able to use it with?

TIA
