Another thing I was noticing after greping the config, at least for my kernel version. Is that there is no Dallas One Wire kernel module for that specific device. So it could be that it is compiled in statically. I've been in menu config several times, and have noticed a lot of Dallas One Wire drivers, but could not say if that one exists in the kernel, or not . . .
