The gspca module is provided as part of the kernel.  The kernel version 
is 2.6.30-10
The libv4l version is 0.6.3-1

Is there a way that I can display the version of gspca?  I looked in 
dmesg and /var/log/messages but didn't find a version listed.

I think cheese may be using gstreamer.  How can I confirm whether cheese 
or skype are using v4l?
