most popular v4l applications in Fedora have all been patched to use libv4l: amsn, camE, camstream, cheese (gstreamer), ekiga (ptlib), gyachi, xawtv and ucview (unicap)... more webcam drivers are in the upstream kernel, and huge numbers of random and esoteric applications will work with the drivers... with Fedora 10’s new kernel and support subsystems, an enormous number of these webcams are supported right out of the box, with no need for driver downloads or tinkering...

RPMAgenda Fusion Fedora has long received a lot of criticism for not providing support for proprietary software and patented codecs out of the box, for all the reasons we’re so familiar with.All these are now a thing of past with RPM Fusion. Incompatibilty of a number of third party repositories with the main Fedora repositories is a thing of past with the introduction of RPM Fusion RPM Fusion uses Fedora's packaging guidelines (except for legal), Fedora's review process for new submissions, Fedora's VCS structure etc. And provies the best repositories for software that cannot be kept in official fedora repositories.
