Hi Momcilo,


That error means the code is unable to find the kernel sources 
containing all the definitions from v4l2. Within the driver directory, 
look for a file named Makefile or Rules.make or Makefile.rules. In one 
of those, there should be a variable pointing to the kernel sources in 
your Linux distribution (usually in /usr/src/linux, consult the 
particular documentation in case you need to install the package or 
download from www.kernel.org). Set the variable to your particular 
kernel and recompile.

Regards,
