I have never applied a patch before, but I have worked with dpk. I have tried 
numerous times to get this working with no success.
I downloaded all the files from 
http://people.canonical.com/~apw/lp418933-karmic/ and installed all the .deb 
packages. Sometimes in different orders. The installs seemed to work well, but 
when I reboot, I still have not network access (wired or wireless). I have a 
Toshiba with Intell Wifi 5100.

I have no clue how to apply a patch and the instructions I have found
online suggest that I would apply the patch prior to creating a .deb
package.

My question is, how can I get this version of the kernel installed so I
can get the network hardware working. Is there a certain order for what
packages to install first. Am I supposed to do something with the patch
file?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I enjoyed using Ubuntu 8.10 on my
laptop in the past, but I want to take advantage of the new features of
9.10.
