I didn't bother too much about V4L, as I think the kernel is already has that
ability for it. I use the 2132 kernel. And I'm just using it for video
conferencing. (I'm using the Gnome Video Conferencing utility, and it works
great in that). I'm not going to the 2.6 kernel yet until all the appropriate
utilities and scripts are ready for it.
