The process I go through is as follows: LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so /usr/bin/skype & After Skype starts, open the Skype options dialogue Select the "Video Devices" tab With "Enable Skype Video" enabled, select the Camera device Press "test" - which shows the webcam picture correctly Press close At this point Skype aborts. I get the same result is I use this command: LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so /usr/bin/skype & I'm not sure what diagnostics would be useful here, so if anyone can suggest what is needed I will provide them. I ran it using strace, thus: LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so strace /usr/bin/skype which ended with this: ------ futex(0xa4df064, FUTEX_WAKE, 1) = 1 gettimeofday({1225216076, 870558}, NULL) = 0 clock_gettime(CLOCK_REALTIME, {1225216076, 870611460}) = 0 futex(0xa88ffd8, FUTEX_WAIT, 1, {9, 999946540}upeek: ptrace(PTRACE_PEEKUSER,26933,44,0): No such process ------ Some details: ian2 ~ # lsusb ... Bus 002 Device 003: ID 046d:092e Logitech, Inc. ... ian2 ~ # uname -r 2.6.27-gentoo-r1 I am using the gspca modules as provided in this kernel. I have tried the latest version from hg - there is no change with that, which makes me think this may be to do with the compatibility layer.
