I'm guessing here, but it seems to me that both kopete and aMsn throttle down the FPS if the upstream bandwidth is too low.
They send just as fast as they can...you get jerkiness because the software shows you what the other person is seeing when you're connected instead of just your video at full frame rate when you're disconnected, same as MSN/Yahoo Messenger, etc do.
That sounds logical, but I used GnomeMeeting 3 years ago with a philips webcam, and saw good colour rendition and smooth video. I'm not seeing anything like as good performance. I accept that the webcam and its driver may be a factor, but I couldn't get the old one to work with FC6.
