Skype 2.0 on Fedora 8

First, build uvcvideo (need developer tools):
svn checkout svn://svn.berlios.de/linux-uvc/linux-uvc/trunk
cd trunk
make
install as root (su -):
make install
modprobe uvcvideo
Download and install Skype 2.0:
yum --nogpgcheck install /tmp/skype-2.0.0.27-fc5.i586.rpm
At this point, in Skype, I see the /dev/video device for my Logitech Quickcam Fusion, but all I got is a black image.
