Comment 48 for bug 273727

I bought E2500, too. There's an instruction for installing with a link to a patch, which is okay with ubuntu 8.10:

But I'm not able to compile the gstfakevideo, so it takes me insane amount of cpu power (circa 50 %). Also the image output doesn't look well (I'm going to check it on windows soon, too). Is there any possibility that this will be functional "out of the box" in some future updates? What's the problem btw?
