[anomaly]

I see what you mean, i managed to locate the folder/files that it was trying to load.

I found the default drivers in:

lib/modules/2.6.24-19-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless

and they were named exactly how the drivers you compiled were.

So i tried swapping the default ones with the ones you compiled, but it would let me either overwrite/rename/delete/move the default drivers.

I've only tried this in the GUI and not terminal, is there some kind of administrative privaledge i need? Or is it some kind of safe guard.
