Where do I see the date/version of the media subsystem?

It is not video related, w_scan works sometimes but freezes the kernel

This is booting right to a console.
Is there a program to do a stress test on the hardware and print lots of 
messages as it's working?

/bin/sh: /sbin/lsmod: No such file or directory
Lot's of pr_fmt redefined errors.

I put the build log at: lockie.ca/test/v4l_build.txt.bz2

Something is not right though. :-(
