I think I know why my cam is misbehaving with cheese - it doesn't supply
capability information so gstreamer rejects it completely even with v4l1
compat. Also mplayer thinks its RGB32 VGA which is really the worst choice
(dark/green). I see when it compiles only main .c file gets made so
definitely something is wrong with Makefile completely. m5602_v4l2.c has
capability in it. I'm trying to get it to link correctly atm.
