I installed linux-backports-modules-intrepid-generic, which was the following deb file:

linux-backports-modules-2.6.27-7-generic_2.6.27-7.4_amd64.deb

But (after rebooting) the wireless network didn't work at all. The module rt61pci wasn't loaded. When I tried it manually, I got these errors:

WARNING: Error inserting rt2x00lib (/lib/modules/2.6.27-7-generic/updates/rt2x00lib.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
WARNING: Error inserting rt2x00pci (/lib/modules/2.6.27-7-generic/updates/rt2x00pci.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
FATAL: Error inserting rt61pci (/lib/modules/2.6.27-7-generic/updates/rt61pci.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

Running "sudo depmod -a" didn't help. Maybe it's just a mismatch between the backports modules package and the kernel image. I'll try it again later.
