How to apply the patch:

You should uninstall the package linux-restricted-modules because the
module from this package would be loaded instead of the newly compiled
one.

Then enter the commands below in a terminal. Please note: The source
code download is 150MB, i.e. several hours for dial-up.

sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall sharutils
mkdir fwlanusb
cd fwlanusb
wget 'http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13046036/fwlanusb.dif'
apt-get source linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-12-386
cd linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24*/
patch -l -p1 < ../fwlanusb.dif
cd fritz/fwlanusb/lib/
uudecode fwlanusb-lib.o.uu
cd ../src
make
sudo checkinstall make install

The last command will ask a question or two, use the default. At the
point where the 10 package options are displayed, change the package
name to something useful like "fwlanusb".
