Gerald's point was that (a) you can't benefit from compiling pwc from some
source on the web, because you already have pwc.ko, and (b) it doesn't seem
likely that _this_ Phillips webcam uses pwc.  So I'm guessing that if they
_had_ a driver for their own cam and don't _now_, that it's probably using
uvc.  So you probably want the uvc driver (uvcvideo) and possibly the
VideoForLinux2 libraries (libpt-plugins-v4l2 - though I needed that for
Ekiga, not for Kopete).
