I have the Logitech C270 HD Webcam which works.

Take a look here - https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Webcam_Setup

[Edit] - Looks like the C310 using the same driver and should also work - http://www.ideasonboard.org/uvc/

do you think it would work out of the box?

update the kernel, it will likely work out of the box

Not absolutely necessary, but you have a better chance that it will work with a newer kernel. Since you dont have the device yet, when you go through the installation process you will get the latest uboot installed and upgrading the kernel will be as easy as installing linux-kirkwood package which is at version 3.8.10

I got the C310, what are some programs I can test it with? I tried cheese but there was an error with libgnome-desktop or something saying it didn't exist.

EDIT: Got it working with Guvcview, my goal is to make it accessible remotely and have a constant stream. Any programs that can do that?

Take a look at my signature. I have a quick start on setting up motion (not completed).

My instructions has the following command to create the folder:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'mkdir -p /var/run/motion
')

Did you run it?

Probably the same issue with /usr/local/apache2
