You're using it with skype? Exactly what version of Skype does video 
streaming? I just installed 2.0.0.68-fc5.i586 as this seems to be the 
latest, but I don't have any webcam button to do video. And if I do a 
skype test call it says I'm having problems with the sound. Which version 
are you using, and how do you do video streaming? The sound I assume has 
to do with pulse audio. Thanks!
