Synaptics package manager tells me I have the latest available Kernel. Here's what I've done. I fetched dkms-agrsm_2.1.80-5_i386.deb and dkms_2.0.21.1-0ubuntu1_all.deb. sudo dpkg -i dkms_2.0.21.1-0ubuntu1_all.deb generated the following output: (Reading database ... 159596 files and directories currently installed.)
