Hello Jean-Francois
Thanks for you comments. More from me inline.

I did, but shouldn't it be possible to just download the the v4l-dvb
source and compile and install without fiddling around with the
distribution's config file?
I could compile everything just with the kernel-headers. The complete
kernel source was not required.
Now some logs after copy the config-2.6.24-21-generic to v4l/.config and
do a new compile and install. I rebooted after this was done:
kernel log after reboot:

Looks like the correct modules are loaded but I still have the "Unknown
symbol" problem.
At these times as I was contributing to the gspcaV1 project, I never had
such kind of problems.
I have to stress this one more: It should be possible to _just_ compile
the source downloaded from linuxtv.org!
I got some time and I would like to test the new gspca V2 v4l2 driver
but with this issues I will get up soon :-(
I have about 20 webcams laying around which I would like to test with
the new gspca V2 "in kernel" drive with a "stock distribution (Ubuntu)"
kernel.
Sorry, I am a bit frustrated right now. Even I am frustrated,
Jean-Francois, you did a great job. Hans with his v4l_lib, too :-)
Regards, Thomas
