I bought a webcam:

Bus 006 Device 004: ID 093a:2622 Pixart Imaging, Inc.

What should I do, to bring it to life?

I installed cheese, but it doesn't gives any video.

/dev/video doesn't exists.

Is there a script that installs all the webcam drivers?

Or how to find out, what drivers does it need?

Thank you.

Post dmesg / syslog information from when you plug it in.

Hi, which kernel are you running ? gspca driver is included in kernel
from 2.6.27 I believe, before that you need to compile and install it
yourself.

If you have the sources of your kernel search for 093a:2622 into
/usr/src/linux-source-$(uname -r)/Documentation/video4linux/gspca.txt

Here it gives me gspca_pac7302.ko , which should be the driver you need.
Look if it's loaded with lsmod, modprobe it if not.
