How are you guys compiling your kernel??? Why don't you 'just' config the thing and do: make dep && make clean && make bzImage && make modules && make modules_install
After that, simply edit your /etc/lilo.conf, run lilo and add your modules using modprobe or insmod (you could also use modconf) and done..... No package needed (except of course for gcc and all that....)
