Thanks for your help. The image came from Technologic Systems (link in 
previous post), and I have not done anything to it, so I assumed that 
bridge.o was from the original image. It would have to be, unless 
installing bridge-utils ("apt-get install bridge-utils") added that 
module. I'm not sure how that works. If bridge.o did come from 
installing bridge-utils, shouldn't the dependencies also have been 
installed?

An lsmod shows that the module is not loaded, but that was why I was 
trying insmod. I looked at the source for the image, but did not see any 
config file. The README mentions doing "make config" wherein the various 
options are selected. Is there a way to see what options were selected 
in the kernel build?

I also checked dmesg, but did not see anything related to bridge.o.
