Xavier, I did not build this kernel myself, but got it
from the archive for my system. Hence the source dir
2.6.15

I've dug some more into this and found the root cause.
(but not the solution)

pvrusb includes include/media/v4l2-common.h
this one declares struct msp_matrix

However my tree contains two files msp3400.h
-rw-rw-r--  1 slug slug 773 Jan  3 04:21
./linux-2.6.15/.pc/2.6.16-rc4/drivers/media/video/msp3400.h
-rw-rw-r--  1 slug slug 3180 Feb 28 22:21
./linux-2.6.15/drivers/media/video/msp3400.h

The first one seems to be the one that is included (no
idea how/why). However that one also includes
msp_matrix.

No idea what causes this.

Best regards, Frans.
