I've just tried it.

The cam seems to be recognized, but when I try to use it in Ekiga, all I
get is a flickering pink/green screen.

I've tried CamStream, and I discovered that I could actually see a
pink/green semblance of myself if I set it to CIF (352x288).

It isn't very clear what I mean, so here's the snapshot :

While it could be used to converse with green aliens, most of the people
I want to videoconference with don't look that green (even when they're
very sick).

And for the record, it is a WHITE t-shirt. ;-)

Any ideas about what could cause this?
