I'd have to go back and check, but I'd assume that i2c-keywest and
therm_pm72 just plain weren't in the breezy kernel at all.  Since we
don't add support for new hardware to old releases, you're probably
going to be stuck upgrading to dapper (and a dapper kernel) if you want
your machine to stop operating in "vacuum cleaner mode" (as benh calls it).
