You shouldn't need to load the rc80211_simple module which came with
Ubuntu. I think that the compat package comes with a rate control algorithm
built into mac80211 itself, so please just try to unload the Ubuntu
mac80211 and load the compat one. For sure Luis (the compat maintainer) has
more clues on this, anyway.
