Public bug reported:

The ndiswrapper module was present in the 2.6.35 kernels for Maverick
but are not present in Natty's 2.6.36 and 2.6.37 kernels.

Furthermore, ndiswrapper-dkms does not permit module building on these
kernels.

To use ndiswrapper, one must compile it from source after applying 2
specific patches to the source (1 for ioctl and 1 for kernels 2.6.35 or
later).
