for general information - the fix is to install the restricted package.

the driver is restricted, in the way ubuntu can distribute it, so needs
to be in the linux-restricted-modules.

For understanding packages being kept back, you may want to look at man
apt-get - it explains a lot more of this.

By the way, it's not a problem in not understanding something - don't
take it personally.  Just look for the way to understand it, and
research it a bit if you're interested, so you know for next time.  This
bugtracker isnt a substitute for support on how apt works, for example -
the manual pages will tell you that, along with various other
documentation on the internet.  :)
