This bug is now mentioned here:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper

"For advanced users: There is a known bug in these Debian packages,
detailed in this thread (
http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?p=100586&sid=f09bad1b17b5f4c62f1c4e68d044b8bf
). If you are having issues after installing from these packages, the
kernel module may not have installed, so you may get the error FATAL:
Module ndiswrapper not found when you run modprobe ndiswrapper in the
terminal. To avoid this problem, it's best to compile from the source
available at http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/. This is fairly simple
but requires the build-essential package to be installed. You can
install this offline using apt-cdrom from the command line or the
synaptic package manager with the ubuntu install CD."

I consider myself an advanced user, but not a linux developer and I
don't have a clue how to workaround this bug following those "official"
instructions.

I want to mention again that this bug may be a regression occurred in
Ubuntu 12.04. Expecting users to workaround a bug by compiling source by
themselves is a serious issue to me.
