There are traces of a widespread error logs from installing
compat-wireless pertaining to update-initramfs, as google would
suggest. Ubuntu 10.10, for example complains of excessive:
"FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.31-wl/modules.dep: No such file or directory"
Other distributions/kernels: "Cannot find /lib/modules/2.6.31-wl"
* Fix kernel version detection
* Fix updating of initramfs. Instead of generating new initramfs image,
simply update the existing one. This makes update-grub redundant, which
is good thing, considering it messes with people's grub.cfg settings
every time compat-wireless is installed. At some point replacing this
script in Makefile with "@update-initramfs -u" will probably be best.
