go to debian.org/doc--there are enough links there to set you on your way to knowing anything you might ever need to know about modules, kernels, debian, linux, free software, etc. check the HOWTO's. check the kernel HOWTO, the configuration HOWTO. i expect that they will have something to start you on your way. start with finding out what the kernel is and does, and the concept of a module in relation to that, and the mechanics of its use will soon become apparent. btw, it's usually a pain for most people to get cc: replies to their mailing address. this is the most well attended list i ever dealt with, so it's sufficient to reply only to the list address. occasionally, someone might request a cc: to their address for whatever reason but, in general, keep in mind that you only need to reply to the list address.
