Yes, you are right; there should be one more column to show which apps
are working with the driver/kmod; while Skype and pwcview(1) are
working fine with the above Philips SPC900NC and pwc.ko, I have another
webcam in a netbook which is working fine in kopete via webcamd, but
at the same time Skype is not; I'm right now debugging this...
