No, modprobe is not pointing at that folder. As I said in #184, "modinfo rtlwifi, et. al. now show each of the modules pointing at the correct driver file, with the expected file date of yesterday." Uninstalling compat-wireless did remove the cw-3.6 directory completely. modinfo rtlwifi filename:

@mcc-mcc3d, is your modprobe still loading the drivers from the updates/cw-3.6 directory? if so, installing compat-wireless/compat- drivers might have no effect. You need to try to get rid of the updates/cw-3.6 directory somehow. Maybe try checking whether it's part of a debian package with dpkg -S

@mcc-mcc3d: something (maybe DKMS) has placed drivers in the updates directory, which have precedence over the kernel directory, which is normally reserved for the drivers that come with the kernel. I don't know how to tell modprobe to ignore the updates directory, and I don't think it makes sense

FYI, I am not a Ubuntu developer or user. I have no idea what constitutes a package for Lucid, nor do I care. You are the one that asked about about the compat-driver packages, which are the way to get the latest version of the kernel drivers. You can, of course, do whatever you want, or even wait

The package would be for the kernel, in general, and not for any specific distro release. Although the patch has been pushed from wireless-next to net-next, it does not seem to have made it into linux-next yet. When it does, you should be able to get it through https://backports.wiki.kernel.org/in
