Right. I'll fix that right away. Thanks. :)

Nope, this is a different bug. The bug you are describing is due to
disocover-data-udeb containing kernel module names for version 2.2 of
the kernel, while we use kernel version 2.4. The bug reported in
#189054 was the wrong choice in a select question in ethdetect.
ethdetect is fixed, and discover-data will hopefully be fixed when
progeny find time to make discover2 udebs available.
Please close bug #189054. It is solved.
If you want to comment on the content of discover-data-udeb, please
add information to bug #175245.
