Yes i have it working on my n800 runing os2008 mine will fail also from time to time. here is what i have to do to get it runing on my system

1st set your sip accounts off if you have any .

2nd open you camera/pop it out

3rd reboot your n800

4 when the system is loaded go right to xterm and start ./motion

5 it works !!!

I have tested this over and over and it seems like you can only get it working from a clean start without any sip accounts runing . I know there must be a way to reset the camera VIA command line i just can;t find out how to do it . So you will have to do it the way i am for now.
