With a bit of patching I have a mptlinux_4.22.00.00-2_all.deb
Install dkms from APT: sudo aptitude install dkms
Fetch the 4.22.00.00-2 drivers for RHEL5 etc. from http://www.lsi.com/storage_home/products_home/standard_product_ics/sas_ics/lsisas1068/index.html?remote=1&locale=EN
Unpack and unpack and unpack them. There are tar.gz in side of zip for days. Somewhere in all that mess you will find mptlinux-4.22.00.00-1dkms.noarch.rpm Convert that to a deb and install it:
fakeroot alien --to-deb mptlinux-4.22.00.00-1dkms.noarch.rpm sudo dpkg -i mptlinux_4.22.00.00-2_all.deb
Due to cultural differences the source will unpack in the wrong place for Ubuntu. Make a copy in the right place.
sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/dkms/mptlinux/4.22.00.00/source cd /usr/src/mptlinux-4.22.00.00/ sudo cp -a . /var/lib/dkms/mptlinux/4.22.00.00/source
