I'm out of my depth, here, Paul.  Part of the makefile reads

MODULE_INSTALLDIR = /lib/modules/$(KERNEL_VERSION)/kernel/drivers/usb/media/
MODULE_INSTALLDIR2 
= /lib/modules/$(KERNEL_VERSION)/kernel/drivers/media/video/

default:
	$(MAKE) -C $(KERNELDIR) SUBDIRS=$(PWD) CC=$(CC) modules

install:
	mkdir -p $(MODULE_INSTALLDIR)
	rm -f $(MODULE_INSTALLDIR)spca5xx.ko
	rm -f $(MODULE_INSTALLDIR2)gspca.ko
	install -c -m 0644 gspca.ko $(MODULE_INSTALLDIR)
	/sbin/depmod -ae

Should I edit the MODULE_INSTALLDIR	to match the MODULE_INSTALLDIR2?  I would 
have thought that they wouldn't have defined two separate ones if they could 
both go in the same one.

Sorry to sound naive - I am ;-)
