Hello,

I've the following environment:

host: Win7, VMWare-player
guest: FreeBSD 8-CURRENT, Xorg-7.4.1, open-vm-tools-253958 (from FreeBSD' ports 
collection)

The attached USB video cam Philips product 0x0329 works fine in Skype in
the above environment, with one small exception: the local view is not
presented in Skype and probing for it says on stdout:

$ skype
Starting the process...
Skype Xv: Xv ports available: 1
Skype XShm: XShm support enabled
Skype Xv: Using Xv port 56
Skype Xv: No suitable overlay format found

An xvinfo gives the following output about the vmware driver:

$ xvinfo

Additional note: without virtualization I'm using in an binary identical
system the NVidia driver and this does not show this problem.

Any ideas? Should I file a bug report?

Thanks in advance
