I would say, definitively a driver problem, not really an ekiga one.

3 min of search on the mailing list's archives gave me this, for an
explanation :
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/ekiga-list/2007-November/msg00212.html

after some more search on this mailing-list , a part of the solution
could be :

http://mxhaard.free.fr/

but i don't find it so easy....

As the "only one quarter of video" subject comes to this mailing list
"rather" often couldn't it a bit more explicitely shown on the wiki ? or
did i miss a link somewhere ?

I think I remember about a migic command line to execute with a quickcam
utility coming with the webcam's driver.. but cannot find it anymore,
perhaps someone else will.

Hope that helps somehow

cheers,
