We have tried this and it successfully works. After updating the configuration file, all you need to do is make the modules (#make modules) then find the modulename.o and then copy it to the /lib/modules/modversion/kernel/... directory. We have tried it at least on the drivers directory.
Hope this helps.

I guess... but you need to have the same kernel version ang build, and you need to use your old kernel .config file, then put "m" to the option you want to make as a module. Recompile the whole kernel then... :) then find the .o file and move to to /lib/modules/kernel/something... I havnt tried this, tell me if you made it successfuly.
