@mcc-mcc3d: something (maybe DKMS) has placed drivers in the updates
directory, which have precedence over the kernel directory, which is
normally reserved for the drivers that come with the kernel. I don't
know how to tell modprobe to ignore the updates directory, and I don't
think it makes sense to do so (it would be like telling your Ubuntu to
downgrade all your packages to the oldest version available).

If you can work out how the drivers in updates/cw-3.6 got there, you
might be able to remove them, e.g. using dkms status and dkms uninstall,
or removing a .deb package. Otherwise you could just delete that
directory.

Ideally any drivers you install should not overwrite the standard
drivers in the kernel directory. compat-drivers seems to try to write to
the updates directory, but perhaps you ran it with a command line option
that overrides that, or built a new kernel from source, or manually
copied drivers into the kernel directory?
