my Kubuntu 6.10 Edgy too, after upgrading from dapper, got this problem. My wifi usb card "US ROBOTICS USR805422 802.11g Wireless USB Adapter" doesn't work anymore, getting error "Invalid argument" on modprobe.

After installing ndiswrapper-utils-1.8

# apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils-1.8

everythings works fine. Btw there's a strange version problem on ndiswrapper command, after installed the package 1.8:

# ndiswrapper -v
utils Error: no version specified!
driver version: 1.22
vermagic: 2.6.17-10-generic SMP mod_unload 586 REGPARM gcc-4.1

Before that the version number was 1.7.

I hope this information may be useful for someone.
