Title:
  Ekiga & gstreamer inputs default to outdated V4L, and require to be
  changed to V4L2

Bug description:
  Most modern webcam and capture devices are V4L2 based, but gstreamer
  and Ekiga both default to using V4L instead.  The V4L API isn't even
  available in 2.6 kernels beyond 2.6.15, so it makes much more sense to
  disable it by default.

  Webcam capture applications that use gstreamer (such as ekiga) throw
  errors otherwise.
