|     Hi Steve did as you asked but my system can't find gspcagui -d
| /dev/video0
|  so it can't work. I guess gspcagui should be in /usr/bin?

not sure what that app is, but i dont think what i gave you installs
that.  if you have a compatible camera, (hundreds are), and you have
installed the driver, plug it in, and it should "just work" in skype,
ekiga, and other apps as well.

did you get any compile erros, and did you reboot?
