For the records, bug #1064 asks exactly that, but did not get too much
responses so far :-)

Just my 2¢: <IMHO>as long as we don't have fancy autodetection and
installer support (which is not likely to happen for Warty, I
suppose), having it in universe is maybe not the worst option. Having
the kernel support is a great thing, because compiling this is the
hard part.</IMHO>

Have a nice weekend!
