[Videoconferencing] CentOS 6 in ISAC2 video room

I have been experimenting with a CentOS 6 system on the computer in room 
222 instead of the normal Scientific Linux 5.
The SL 5 system is still the default boot target but CentOS 6 is currently 
running.

I believe it is in a working state. Please let me know of any problems.
I have installed SeeVoghRN, Acroread, Libre Office, Teamviewer and Skype.
Skype runs but the camera does not work. This seems to be a problem with 
Skype - it sees the capture cards but doesn't actually send video. It 
doesn't work for me at home, either. It's unclear it would work with 
another operating system, judging by some threads on the community 
forum.
