No need to do that they are reading along here (atleast I (the webcam
dev) am), please see my comment at the end of this bug report which
explains the problem and how to work around it:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471726
I'm sorry but a workaround is all I can do for F-9, in F-10 things will
work out of the box (except skype, that will still require the workaround).
any change to skype work out of box without this workaround in the near
future?
