Yes, of course. I always check after a "make install" if the correct 
modules at the right place. Actually, /lib/modules/`uname 
-r`/kernel/drivers/media/video/gspca because I am only interested at 
gspca at the moment.

For me it looks also very strange. When some dependencies are not met 
the compilation does not work! Everything fine here but I get this 
"Unknown symbol".

Should I try to build my own kernel? Latest git?

Thanks, Thomas
