The problem seems to stem from some conflicts with the previous installation of a standalone gspca kernel already installed. On debian I previously installed the gspca module using the usual module-assistant procedure (m-a a-i gspca), which generetes just one gspca.ko file. When installing the v4l-dv package it install many gscpa related modules, which issue the "Unknown symbol" problem if the previous gspca modules hasn't been removed. So removing the old gspca.ko module seems to be the right fix. BTW I wonder why v4l-dvb includes the gspca modules, which seem to be related more to the gspca cameras than to DVB devices Regards. _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
