I got something similar when I was attempting to compile a module for a
Philips web cam. It meant that my kernel didn't have the "hooks" in it
for that driver. You may need to find a kernel with support or a patch
that gives it support.

It looks like that hook may have been killed in 2.6.9/2.6.10 you might
have to use a kernel older than that. Or find a driver that doesn't use it.

http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Kernel/2004-10/7964.html

it appears that that driver has some proprietary code in it and the guy
in charge of kernel development has been kind of touchy about that
lately. I know the Philips web cam hooks have been in and out a few
times between 2.6.4 and 2.6.11.
