That confirms what I found in ekiga.  The colour is a great deal better than I 
can get in amsn, which points to the application rather than the driver, I 
think.

spcagui only gave me the video window (in FC6) and I had to kill it to stop 
it.  Clearly there is a problem with that one.

I'm now convinced that it's the software, not the driver.  After seeing what 
ekiga could do, I expected to find that.  However, like you, I couldn't 
adjust the colour at all.  No big deal, though, as it was acceptable.
