[GnomeMeeting-list] GM color format error opening pwc device (Creative Webcam PRO eX)

[yarger <john yarger charter net>]

I received the following error after starting GM:

Your driver doesn't seem to support any of the colour formats supported
by GnomeMeeting.
 Please check your kernel driver documentation in order to determine
which Palette is supported. Set it as GnomeMeeting default with:
 gconftool --set "/apps/gnomemeeting/devices/color_format" YOURPALETTE
--type string

Here is my configuration:
Mandrake Linux 10.0 Official (pwc module) (kernel: 2.6.3-7)
GM 0.98.5
Creative WebCam PRO eX

This link states that pwc only delivers the YUV420P palette:
http://www.smcc.demon.nl/webcam/api.html#palette

In accordance with the error message, I entered the following command:
gconftool --set "/apps/gnomemeeting/devices/color_format" YUV420P --type
string

I continued to receive the same error after entering this configuration.

I verified that the default version of pwc that comes with ML10 does
support my webcam by installing and successfully receiving video using
the pwc developer's CamStream application.  Without "tainting" the
kernel with pwcx, it appears that the video is limited to QSIF
(160x120).

Any ideas?  Does the YOURPALETTE variable need to be in a certain
syntax?  Does GM support the YUV420P palette?

Thanks,
John
