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 [ 2245.492000] rc80211_simple: disagrees about version of symbol ieee80211_rate_control_unregister [ 2245.492000] rc80211_simple: Unknown symbol ieee80211_rate_control_unregister [ 2245.492000] rc80211_simple: disagrees about version of symbol ieee80211_rate_control_register [ 2245.492000] rc80211_simple: Unknown symbol ieee80211_rate_control_register [ 2245.492000] rc80211_simple: disagrees about version of symbol sta_info_get [ 2245.492000] rc80211_simple: Unknown symbol sta_info_get Cheers. -- with metta, Shawn Tan Centre for Advanced Photonics and Electronics Department of Engineering, University of Cambridge 9 JJ Thomson Avenue, Cambridge CB3 0FA, UK.
