Follow up
The first thing.
Why are you using a completely out of date, incomplete motion.conf file?
Where does it come from?
I have seen it before in bug reports. Some debian bloke once created a totally incomplete motion.conf file and for some reason people find it somewhere and use that instead of the motion-dist.conf file that comes with Motion. The first thing you need to use a proper config file. But I would like to know where people find this old file so I can have it removed.
On the No space on device it seems to be a driver problem. See
SupportQuestion2005x10x10x182706 (which is about same problem but no good solution).

I tried the default conf.file and the one I wrote here (which i found in a post on this site) the problem is the same...
I tested motion also with a second webcam and it gives me the same problem
If you tell me how I can send you some trace, but you should tell me how to do it ...

Some proposals.
* Run Motion is debug mode. It may tell more. * Post the modified default motion.conf that you also tried. Did you set input to 8? * Maybe your driver for the camera is
V4L2 only and Motion is not yet ready to support that. There is some unfinished work that implements part of it but it breaks a lot of other things. * What do you have in the syslog?
