Yup, that's what I did. I downloaded the compat-wireless package and compiled
it. However, it seems like there's a compatibility problem with the package
modules and the default Ubuntu ones.
When I try to load rc80211_simple, it loads the ubuntu one. The compat package
doesn't build a rc80211_simple. So, if I load the ubuntu rate controller, it
loads the ubuntu mac80211, which has similar symbol problems with the b43
module.
Oh yea, I'm using the ubuntu 2.6.22 kernel. I guess I should just be patient,
wait a few more weeks for 2.6.24 and try that instead.
Errors when loading the ubuntu rc80211_simple:
[ 2245.492000] rc80211_simple: disagrees about version of symbol sta_info_put
[ 2245.492000] rc80211_simple: Unknown symbol sta_info_put

Cheers.
