Perhaps this is a Ubuntu-specific bug? I'm a little out of my league here, but depmod is controlled by configuration files in /etc/depmod.d. I'm running a stock Ubuntu 8.04 system (ah, except for all the updated graphics drivers, of course) and in that directory there is one file, /etc/depmod.d/ubuntu.conf, which contains:

# more /etc/depmod.d/ubuntu.conf search updates ubuntu built-in

I would very much consider this an Ubuntu-specific bug. The default to install an out-of-kernel compiled module is extra/, that should definitely in the search list. OpenSUSE (10.3) has the following: search updates weak-updates extra built-in Personally, I would even put extra before updates, but that's probably personal gusto, because IMHO self-compiled stuff should always come first. Will add this to the wiki.
