* added support for letting plugins suggest additional kernel modules

* used this new functionality in the theme and vmware plugins to suggest
  the kernel modules they need (this should fix showing the console in ubuntu)
* added distro-specific kernel module filtering, such that there no longer are
  the spurious warnings about 'hid', 'unix' and/or 'af_packet' not being found
