Well, tonight I downloaded and compiled gnomemeeting (the most recent one 
from their Web site). Then I tried it with 2.4.19 kernel (no changes!) and 
all 4 models of IBM cameras. All worked out of the box, no configuration 
of anything was needed, and I tested it connecting to a Win32 box running 
NetMeeting.

I will make patches to VIDIOCSPICT handler anyway, but looks like the 
current gnomemeeting does not need them.
