This worked perfectly.  Thanks.  I did already have myself added to that
group, I did not know that you have to log in and then log out in order to
notify the OS that you are now part of a group.

I am not sure what you mean by the "--append-to-version" comment, I am going
to assume that this is something that make-kpkg does automatically?  When I
built my kernel I did have to rename the /lib/modules/<kernel> directory
before I ran modules_install, but remember this is a kernel built the
"classic" way and --_not_ the "Debian" way.  So if make-kpkg should do this
automatically, is it broke on something?
