Correct. So reaasigning this bugreport to yaird.

Most probably teh reason for that module not getting included
automatically is due to the driver not supporting sysfs (if it did,
then yaird should fail loudly when attempting to produce an image).

Try edit /etc/yaird/Default.cfg and add "MODULE gdth" somewhere in the
GOALS section and report back if that works for you.
