With motion you can use a video4linux device as a motion detector.
It will make snapshots if motion is detected.


Installing:

Just type make in the source dir, you should now have a binary called 'motion'.


Web interface (Out of date since now mpeg movies can be made):

Included in this package is also 'show.cgi', this will output a page with the
50 latest snapshots. You can place it in the cgi-bin dir of you http server.
You will have to change the REALDIR and PUBLICDIR to your situation.
The shots will also have to be accesible for your server.
In my case the shots are located in /home/pe1rxq/src/motion/shots and in the
htdocs dir of apache I have a link 'shots' to this dir.
