The currently broken state of video for Linux

    I'm packing for my trip to Seattle, and I just put two web cams into my bag? Why two, well one works with video4linux v1 applications (and isn't a very good web cam), and the other one is the fancy auto focussing nice web cam which works with video4linux 2 applications. Why is it that several years after video4linux 2 shipped, I still have to deal with this problem? Grumble.
