First of all, make sure your driver is in 2.6.15 but not 2.6.8. If so,
here are all the dependences for kernel-image-2.6.11-1-686 which is the
latest kernel in my cache:
coreutils
cpio
cramfsprogs
dash
fileutils
initrd-tools
libacl1
libattr1
libc6
libncurses5
libselinux1
libsepol1
libslang2
libuuid1
lsb-base
module-init-tools
ncurses-bin
sed
util-linux
zlib1g
