Custom kernel question

[Matt Patterson]

Why not download the fully patched ubuntu kernel, then apply the patches 
for win4Lin to it. I believe you can get the patched kernel source from 
synaptic (linux-tree). From there just patch in the extra stuff and 
build as normal. If you have had success building the vanilla kernel 
with patches I dont htink you will have a problem with the ubuntu stuff 
either.

I am making the assumption that madwifi is included with the ubuntu 
kernel. Not sure though.
