I did, and it's still defaulting to the v4l1 API, no tthe v4l2 API..

I actually wanted to see the output you are getting.  It will tell you
if you are actually using v4l2 or v4l1.. Otherwise, how are you so sure
that you are actually using v4l2 other that what's stated in the kernel
manifest?  I tried that exact same kernel, but it still used v4l1...
