Small module discovery bug

When starting mol the first time after a reboot, I get the following:

Starting MOL session 0
Loading Mac-on-Linux kernel module:
   /lib/modules/2.4.20-powerpc/misc/mol.o
The kernel module '/lib/modules/2.4.20-powerpc/misc/tun.o' appears to be 
missing.
Running in PowerPC G3 mode, 48 MB RAM

mol seems to be looking for tun.o in misc, but in Debian sid, it's in 
/lib/modules/2.4.20-powerpc/kernel/drivers/net/tun.o.

Later, I get "Ethernet Interface (port 1) 'tun-<tun0>' @ 00:00:0D:EA:DB:EE" 
and (with iptables installed) networking is fine, so it appears to just be a 
bad assuption about the location of tun.o.

Thanks for MOL; pretty amazing software!
