checkXML is just a small shell script which calls meinproc(4) --check.
The --check parameter validates the document against the DTD, otherwise
meinproc just verify that it's a correct document.

inlinemediaobject is used even in the example template in the
kdelibs/kdoctools sources (I assume it's kdelibs4, otherwise look into
frameworks/kdoctools); could you please paste the relevant docbook section
(including the tags which encloses the inlinemediaobject) and the exact error?
