Problems after downgrading Dapper to kernel 2.6.12

[Juan Casanova Rodriguez]

If finally get ndiswrapper working. I just uninstall it completely and
install it again (compile and everything), and it works. Quite strange.

I still need to put the sound module in the modules file, and gnome
mixer don't remember my configuration after reboot, and start muted
always.

Keep looking...
