Assuming you've an HDMI monitor and mouse/keyboard hooked up to your BBB, start a terminal window and run:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install gpicview fswebcam
fswebcam -r 640x480 pic.jpg ; gpicview pic.jpg
Should get you started.
But I've had no luck with HP-3110 or Hp-2200 usb webcams with or without a powered hub on my A5A BBB, issues in the UVC driver gives me only blank or distorted frames.
Both USB webcams cameras work perfectly on a Raspberry Pi2. Since a Pi2 costs a bit less than the only "known working" Logitech webcam I'm aware of, I've ordered another Pi2 for this project.
