I forgot to mention that aMSN works good with this driver. Good means sometimes i need to rmmod and then modprobe gspca_main and gspca_ov519, but in result I am able at least to use the webcam. The Cheese webcam app works good too. May be related to bug #475623 (ie, kopete not ported to use libv4l seemlessly yet), ie, try to launch kopete via: LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libv4l/v4l1compat.so kopete to confirm. oops, seems you're i686, you'd need: LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so kopete (and make sure libv4l rpm pkg is installed). I was going to make the same comment as Rex, but I'm a bit too late it seems :) Thanks, LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so kopete did work quite well for kopete. Is there any way to make Kopete behave like that always? And what about Skype?

Yes, its open source, so we can fix it, that is what bug 475623 is about. > And what about Skype? That can be made to work the same way, no way to fix it so that you don't need to do the LD_PRELOAD. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 475623 *** |
