Well the module is probably built and is just not included in the nic-modules-<version>-udeb package. What is the module? The .config file is in the kernel-image-2.4.18-i386 source package. If you generated a module from that (that was actually compatable with the packaged kernel, always tricky) or took the module from the kernel-image-2.4.18 package and generated a udeb, you would need to put the udeb into localudebs and add its name to the pkg-lists/net/i386 file. It would probably be easier to just file a bug on kernel-image-2.4.18-i386 and ask for the module to be included in the udeb though. You could also grab the source to kernel-image-2.4.18-i386, modify the packaging and build your own new kernel image and nic-modules package, and shove them all into localudebs. -- see shy jo
