I've had the same types of problems.  It seems the ppa and imm kernel
drivers are fairly old.  The documentation is a bit out of date, at least
for anything above 2.2.x.  Have you tried sending a message to the linux
kernel list??  I bet someone on there would know if there is a dependency
needed, but not documented anywhere for the 2.4 series.  Thats what my best
guess is.
