The above posted solution by WANTED works. I had to make a slight modification. On this one, running Kubuntu 8.04.1.

I had to, of course run those commands with sudo in front. But for the last one, instead of '> sky2.ko' I used '> /home/user/sky2.ko' and then 'sudo cp /home/user/sky2.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-generic/kernel/drivers/net' and it worked.

It wouldn't let me directly modify the sky2.ko in that dir. I had to send it to my home dir, then sudo copy it back. Then modprobe worked fine and the system is updating now.

Thanks WANTED!

PS. I won't have this laptop after a day or two from now. It's shipping out.
