Hi,
as a last input, I compile pwc the ugly way and it worked, only some warnings, but I'm not experienced enough to say if they're important.

dmesg is a bit verbose but nothing spurious. And gnomemeeting seems able to use the camera, so fine.
Hope this helps, if I'm so verbose, it's because I'm so happy to have my webcam working at last!
Thanks, Eric
