Favorites(tm)! Isnt that a copywrited Microlame thing? I was going to paste my /dev/video* to this message so you can see what mine looks like, but that too isnt working under slack9... (I may go back to 8! maybe after I get a new hard disk and cpu...) anyway... You should have a link from /dev/video to /dev/video0 (that may fix your v4l issue... dunno...) Freevo sounds interesting :) I may have to try that!
