I am using Kopete 0.50.1 on KDE 4.0.4 OpenSUSE. I have a problem with my webcam Logitech Quickcam messenger. When i select video in Kopete's configuration it detects my webcam and shows ZC301-2 on the input drop down box. But the Standard box is empty. After i have selected video in configuration my webcam's LED is on and stays on. But there is no image in the square that is supposed to have the webcams output ! When i then try to open in Ekiga softphone i get an error message "Error while opening video device /dev/video0"

When not staring Kopete first my webcam is working fine with Ekiga softphone and video and sound work in this application.

I am using gspca driver.
USB Webcam has following id :  idVendor=046d, idProduct=08da

How can i diagnose the issue ? It doesn't seem a driver problem as the cam works fine in Ekiga.
