of course:
% sudo apt-get install module-assistant

Hi,
I have a debian system, I have the kernel source installed which it seems
includes all the object modules. I want to add a missing module. There is
no reference to it in the .config file, but the source code is there.
Under dead rat (fedora) I would:
1. Edit the .config file, and add the module name as
"CONFIG_<module_name>=m"
2. Run "make oldconfig".
3. Run "make bzImage". (Does debian use vmlinuz?)
4. Run "make modules".
5. Run "make modules_install".
6. Copy the kernel to /boot
7. Run lilo. (Why do they still use lilo?)
8. Fix /etc/modprobe.d entry for the device.
9. Reboot.
Is there a simpler way?
Thanks, Geoff.
