OK, in fact the problem come from Kopete and Skype. According to
http://moinejf.free.fr/gspca_README.txt I ran:

# urpmi libv4l

and

$ export LD_LIBRARY=/usr/lib64/
$ LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libv4l/v4l1compat.so kopete

and now it works fine in Kopete.

Trying to do the same with skype fails with:
ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib64/libv4l/v4l1compat.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot
be preloaded: ignored.


I don't think regular users will accept all this mess ;)



------ Original Bug Text: ------

Description of problem:

This Webcam worked fine in Mandriva 2008.1. Now with kernel 2.6.27 it doesn't work anymore. Device is created but image is black. I suspect there is a confusion in the driver because there are 2 version of Communicate STX (0x08ad with Zc0302 chipset and 0x08d7 with Vc0302 chipset). I have the second one but gspca_zc3xx is loaded instead of gspca_vc032x.
I reported the bug to JF Moine (gspca driver maintainer).


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
# uname -r
2.6.27-desktop-0.rc5.1mnb
