I'm having problems building libxcb. It complains that there is no
Python module called _elementtree in cElementTree.py. I've been trying
to trace this on the Internet, and it seems that this is due to pyexpat
not being built. How does this get built?

The uvcvideo driver uses the V4L2 API in the Linux kernel. Ekiga can
use either V4L or V4L2.
http://linux-uvc.berlios.de mentions an audio bug in some Logitech
