You just sets stopmotion to use a grabber program which works with your device. It is also possible to do the same with video export; just plug in an encoder capable of doing video export from couple of images. Stopmotion has a set of tools which helps you creating the movements smooth and precise. Version: 0.5.5-1 (stopmotion)"
I've not used it myself, having used the Gimp also, but this program sounds like it may be up for more "profesionnal" Oh, and searching packages.ubuntu.com shows that it is at version 0.5.3 in edgy (I'm testing Feisty at the moment).
