hi,

the modules that I know come from 
http://ppa.launchpad.net/mactel-support/ubuntu/pool/main/
and they do delete a kernel modele


for example, the package applesmc-dkms
deletes /lib/modules/2.6.26-2-686/kernel/drivers/hwmon/applesmc.ko
and puts /lib/modules/2.6.26-2-686/updates/dkms/applesmc.ko

a.

ps: I did not test the proposed patch due to another 
DKMS bug I will post later on
