If you're using kernel-package, external modules are reasonably well supported; you need to unpack tarballs in /usr/src/modules and run 'make-kpkg modules-image', generally. i2c and lm-sensors, among other things, are both included in Debian unstable (and testing) in the i2c-source and lm-sensors-source packages, respectively. They've worked reasonably well for me, at least. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ (Thesed and employed now, so hopefully finding time to do more useful lm-sensors maintenance)
