Author Find modules in make menuconfig after name?

Hi,

I'm currently fine-tuning a Sarge install with a more recent 2.6.12 kernel,
building needed modules one by one according to /var/log/boot.

I can't seem to find i810_tco, ohci1394 and yenta_socket. Where are these
beasts? Also, more generally, is there a way to find a module in make
menuconfig after its name? I'm vaguely familiar with their names, but since
there are hundreds of options, I guess I can't skim them all through.
Googled about it, but to no avail.

Any suggestions?

try using "/", it is the command that puts up the search dialog for most
programs that run on the console
