Man, I haven't used Knips in ages now--but the last times I recall using it, it had massive problems with locking up and keeping up with the video feed coming from the camera, often locking up my N800 and causing it to reboot. I remember it improved slightly, at one point, but it never truly worked well.

Yeah, knips stopped working awhile back for me as well.
Install the application called camera instead.
Tapping "klick!" causes a pause, followed by:
"Error while fetching image! The video control did not offer an image in time. Giving up!"
Other camera apps work fine on this device (eg. mbarcode, and "camera")
This is on an n800 running maemo 2008, knips version 0.6.20091110-2.
I will not file a bug report, because of privacy mishandling of the bug database (ref: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=6377), but anyone with a bug db account is welcome to report this issue.
