Hello,
I just managed to install v4l on Ubuntu Hardy
I downloaded
libv4l-0.5.98.tar.gz from this URL http://people.atrpms.net/~hdegoede/
tar xvzf libv4l-0.5.98.tar.gz
make
then I copied the libs to /usr/local/lib
and redefined the variable
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/libv4l.0.5.98/libv4l1/v4l1compat.so
and for the next session
echo "export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/lib/libv4l1/v4l1compat.so" >> ~/.bashrc
Works fine with a Logitech Quickcam Communicate STX
