If memory serves, i2c-viapro is part of the lm-sensors distribution
(not the i2c distribution). If you're using a stock 2.4.20 kernel,
you should install the relevant lm-sensors and i2c kernel module
package; otherwise, you'll need to build your own from
lm-sensors-source and i2c-source. With a little bit of effort, you
can build modules against the relevant kernel-headers package; looking
at what debian/rules does to build against a single kernel (I think,
the build-a-module target, or something like that) should help you.
