something else must be amiss in your setup. All kmdls live under
/updates and that's even the preferred location.

Try running depmod -ae and grep /lib/modules/<uname -r>/modules.dep
for ndiswrapper modules.

Most likely you installed for the wrong kernel? Does uname -r really
map to the argument <uname -r> above? If that the case, then remmeber
to always use

<depsolver> install foo foo-kmdl-`uname -r`
