Here's my proposal A:
  (1) I fix ndiswrapper to handle kernel 2.6.35
  (2) Kernel provides ndiswrapper-modules
  (3) I change ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 to recommend ndiswrapper-modules | ndiswrapper-dkms

This way, all normal installations use the version shipped in Ubuntu's kernel,
but if needed (e.g., for custom kernels), the dkms version can be used.

Here's my proposal B:
  (1) I fix ndiswrapper to handle kernel 2.6.35
  (2) linux stops shipping a pre-built ndiswrapper

This way, dkms will be used always.
