After installing the modules (I should've bin able to find them myself)
everything is working again.

Some tips to improve the debian packaging:

- Add the complete list as suggested packages for collectd
  (with maybe the processes of memory module as required)
- Add an /etc/init.d/collectd restart in the post-install of the
modules

Is it possible to have collectd execute specified scripts for other
data gathering purposes? I have created scripts to count users, gather
filesystem usage and stuff like that. It would be very nice to have those
script executed by collectd.

The problem is solved, so I won't need them, but maybe others could
benefit from the packages.
