Hi,

I had the same problem with the ssb module and compat-wireless in ubuntu
9.04. The problem is that the ssb module is integrated into the
initramfs image. The version out of the initramfs image is loaded on
startup and not the version of compat-wireless. Running "sudo
update-initramfs -u" after installing compat-wireless and restaing the
system fixes the problem for me. Either Debian/Ubuntu should remove ssb
form default initramfs image or compat-wireless should update the image
with the install command. At least the compat-wireless documentation
needs an update.
