Solution reported by parishm@comcast.net ;
well this is a laugh but it works. apparently you need 3rd party software to use the camera. go to http://tinyurl.com/3bhsfn and download that file. it will direct you to download Sun Java runtime Environment 6 first then install the Yawcam software. it's not exactly high quality but it works
Mirror for the driver here Webcam driver
