I think it is the same so the correct drivers are loaded in knoppix
too (which is a heavily hacked on debian btw). I would suggest
reinstalling your current kernel and see if the module size doesn't
change. Perhaps it did get corrupted somehow. If you are using a stock
debian kernel:
apt-get install --reinstall <package name>
or with aptitude: aptitude reinstall <package name>
