Ekiga3 and webcamd working (was: [FreeBSD 8/9] USB webcamd and video4bsd: Call for testing)

[Curtis Villamizar]

Still playing with my netbook.  I now have Ekiga3 running with
webcamd, video4bsd, libv4l.

The patches are *not* quite ready for prime time but if you also do a
"setenv LDFLAGS '-L /usr/local/lib'" or equiv for your shell it will
all work.  The configure and Makefiles may need to be patched in
plugins/vidinput_v4l2 may need to be changed to have /usr/local/lib
added to the library search path correctly.

The patches are applied to devel/ptlib26 and are all tiny changes.  A
few less PTRACE lines in vidinput_names.cxx might have been plenty.

The sound_oss.cxx patch creates four entries with dsp0, dsp1, dsp2,
dsp3, rather than four entries each with dsp0 in it.

The patches aren't quite right but it gets ekiga3 running with V4L2
for now.  That said, I haven't tried a call yet, just the "View ->
Show Call Panel" and "View -> Local Video".
