That's probably why it's missing.
and skype immediately crash with it when try to open
camera:-(
I hate to say it but I confirm this. Kopete doesn't crash but shows
garbage.
Should we talk to Fedora-kernel guys?
No need to do that they are reading along here (atleast I (the webcam
dev) am), please see my comment at the end of this bug report which
explains the problem and how to work around it:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471726
I'm sorry but a workaround is all I can do for F-9, in F-10 things will
work out of the box (except skype, that will still require the workaround).
any change to skype work out of box without this workaround in the near
future?
Sure if they release the code under the FOSS license in the near future fixing
it will be no problem, but only if that happens.

Hans
