[ snip lots of stuff about installing skype ]
So, after that slight detour, does anyone have any idea how I can get my
webcam recognised in skype? I'm using
video4bsd-kmod-0.1.3
libv4l-0.6.4
v4l_compat-1.0.20100113
webcamd-0.1.4
pwcview-1.4.1_2
skype-2.0.0.72,1
linux_base-f10-10_2
FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE-p2 #1 i386 GENERIC
Is skype video working for anyone?
thanks very much
Chris
