FC5 ACPI modules - how to add missing modules

Im currently running the latest FC5 kernel (2.6.17-1.2174_FC5).  Looking in:

/lib/modules/2.6.17-1.2174_FC5/kernel/drivers/acpi

I see only:

ac.ko
battery.ko
ibm_acpi.ko
video.ko
asus_acpi.ko
button.ko
toshiba_acpi.ko

I was hopeing to find a fan & thermal module also.  I assume this means
these
were not compiled into this kernel.  Is that a correct assumption?  I am
fearful that
to get these I will need to recompile this kernel - something that makes
me break out
in hives.

thoughts anyone?
