Right a bit of progress, xawtv -hwscan gives me....
octl: VIDIOCGFBUF(base=(nil);height=0;width=0;depth=0;bytesperline=0): Invalid argument /dev/video0: OK [ -device /dev/video0 ] type : v4l name : ViCam-based Camera flags: capture
and if I run xawtv -c /dev/video0 I get a picture, admittedly it's a little dark but it's there, I also get the following dumped into the console
This is xawtv-3.88, running on Linux/i686 (2.4.21-215-athlon) /dev/video0 [v4l]: no overlay support v4l-conf had some trouble, trying to continue anyway ioctl: VIDIOCGFBUF(base=(nil);height=0;width=0;depth=0;bytesperline=0): Invalid argument ioctl: VIDIOCMCAPTURE(frame=0;height=240;width=320;format=7): Invalid argument ioctl: VIDIOCMCAPTURE(frame=0;height=240;width=320;format=15): Invalid argument ioctl: VIDIOCMCAPTURE(frame=0;height=240;width=320;format=9): Invalid argument ioctl: VIDIOCMCAPTURE(frame=0;height=240;width=320;format=5): Invalid argument
So it looks like the ioctl messages might be what's causing my pain in gnomemeeting.
