Hi,
thanks for report, let me check it. 

Which driver do you use for this webcam? Google says it should be gspca or 
v51x-jpeg. And what version do you have?
 
Meanwhile you can build Kopete without libv4l support, it's only optional for 
now. 

So far I've got quite positive reactions so I hope this is only exception.

Libv4l2 can't get device capabilities. From libv4l sources it's checking if it 
is v4l2 camera and check fails. Gspca is v4l2 compliant so I wonder why it's 
failing. Could you try latest gspca driver? See Hans'es tutorial

I'm not sure about the second one driver.
