vloopback module won't compile from vloopback-source

still fails for me (Ubuntu 11.10 , 3.0.0-12-server)

It seems that 'include/linux/videodev.h' is removed from kernel >=2.6.38. (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=930462#p930462)

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

  svn co http://www.lavrsen.dk/svn/vloopback/trunk/ vloopback
  cd vloopback

build using v4l-utils headers

   sed -i 's/<linux\/\(videodev.h\)>/"libv4l1-\1"/' *.c example/*.c

remove old API

   sed -e '/CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L1_COMPAT/,+2d' -e 's/BASE_VIDIOCPRIVATE/192/' -e '/VIDIOCGUNIT:/,+18d' -e '/VIDIOCKEY/,+1d' -i vloopback.c example/dummy.c

I don't know what, but vloopback refuse to be conpiled.
You must change the line #include <stdint.h> to //#include <stdint.h> of the file libv4l1-videodev.h

My webcam uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device CNF7129 (04f2:b071) was reversed after the installation vloopback, and the command export LIBV4LCONTROL_FLAGS=3 && LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype , was normal.
