Hi all,
sorry for this mail, but i have no choice :-) ... i try to solve
problem reading archive but...

my linux distribution is fedora 8 (kernel 2.6.24.3-34) and my webcam
is trust wb-5400. when i try to install microdia from git repos,
there's no problem

First of: Are you aware that Fedora 8 is no longer maintained? If you plan to switch to Fedora 10 soon I advice you to install the driver on your new system.

About you issue:

1. Is libv4l installed - the Fedora 9 version is available here:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=78025

Download the i386 build (and if you have a 64-bit system the x86_64 build too) and install using:
# yum localinstall *.rpm --nogpgcheck

2. If you're using the x86_64 build of mplayer you need to use the 64-bit version of libv4l too:
$ LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/libv4l/v4l2convert.so mplayer ...

Note: For skype you still need to use the 32-bit version of libv4l since there is only an i386 build of skype.
