"Didn't you say earlier that load4 does stuff with v4l and that's why people's
USB cameras don't work after installing your driver?"
Because the driver is uptream, I work now with patches to apply on the last 
GSPCA which is part of the last V4L, this is why the compilation requires all 
dependencies be compiled too. However the GSPCA in 2.6.31 includes a mandatory 
function for gspca_gl860 so gspca_gl860 sources in 2.6.32 may be compiled 
against the GSPCA in 2.6.31. The "inst_gl860" with "-m" option only compiles 
the gspca_gl860 sources, no other stuff. It should work against the GSPCA 
already present in 2.6.31 .

What happens with Camorama is normal, V4L1 applications needs to be launched 
with a LD_PRELOAD (LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so camorama) to map 
V4L1 system calls to V4L2 ones. Only V4L2 applications work fine with the gspca 
drivers.
Did you you only compiled the gspca_driver or compile also other stuff?
