Well, it's true one has to confirm the install by clicking an OK button, before the auto-updater starts installing anything at all, so I guess it follows that merely going online and downloading updates is harmless. I did, unfortunately, click OK to install on the first occasion, being an innocent Windoze user and totally unaware of this kind of issue.

I had hoped that DKMS would solve this for future occurrences. If not, then that is one more good argument for reverting to the default driver, I feel. I do not want to keep having to do all this, even though I can see that, once I have done it once, it will seem less daunting, and, possibly, eventually, seem no more than a trivial chore.
