[cpia] Can't load cpia/cpia_pp modules

[Sang Y. Yum]

Ok, I made some progress.

I went over to creative.com and noticed that one of
the requirement for WebCam II is that the parallel
port has to be set to "ECP" mode. 

After I made that change, I retried loadig the drivers
and this is what I got:

parport0: PC-style at 0x378 (0x778) [SPP,ECP,ECPPS2]
parport0: read2 timeout.
parport0: Multimedia device, VLSI Vision Ltd PPC2
Camera
V4L-Driver for Vision CPiA based cameras v0.7.3
Parallel port driver for Vision CPiA based cameras
v0.7.3

    0x09
  1 camera(s) found                                   
                         

Even though the second and third line from the bottom
are a bit scary, I proceeded with compiling gqcam in
client directory. But, executing it gives:

[sang@pikatsu client]$ gqcam
ioctl (VIDIOCSWIN): Invalid argument                  
                         

Sigh. Now what?
