actually, now i remember. when using a power kernel you have to download different fcam camera drivers as the normal fcam drivers don't work with a power kernel (i.e power kernel 'breaks' your camera). so, even if you revert to a stock kernel you will still probably have the 'newer' fcam drivers. i haven't tried receiving the stream on my pc vlc yet so don't know if it streams, it looks like it's working though as far as the phone side goes.
