Do I need to do anything more than activated this in the module screen?
I activated it, but it didn't solve my problem. However, my issue might be different.
When I go to my Tracker (Recent Posts) and click on "1 new" for a new post and that post has enough comments that it wraps to a new page (I allow 10 comments per page), I am not taken to that particular comment, but rather to the top of the node.
Is this module meant to fix that issue or not?
Thank you for taking the time to develop this.

Your issue is different.
I don't use the tracker module on my site, so I never tried to make that work. But I looked into it and unfortunately, this module won't solve the problem without some more work. It looks like the tracker module doesn't link to a particular comment id, but an anchor "#new"on the node page. Since the comment id is required by comment redirect, some additional work needs to happen to get this id and modify the link.
Unfortunately, the tracker module defines the links directly with no theme functions, so the only way to change this is to modify the module directly. I'm a little short on time right now, so I just updated the README with vague info about what needs to happen for the tracker module. If I get some time, maybe I'll see if I can come up with a patch or whatev to tracker module.
