The driver compiles but fails to install, with the following error: [ 578.661869] Compat-drivers backport release: compat-drivers-v3.7-rc1-6 [ 578.661879] Backport based on linux-stable.git v3.7-rc1 [ 578.661885] compat.git: linux-stable.git [ 578.664089] cfg80211: Unknown symbol simple_open (err 0) Does anyone know what this means? Did Ubuntu change the kernel enough that compat-drivers compatibility layer is confused?
