ieee80211_crypt_tkip is missing after rebuilding wl.ko [SOLVED]

Hi, I just rebuilt my broadcom 4312 wireless driver in accordance with the wiki, but the ieee80211_crypt_tkip module seems to be completely missing from my computer,
how can I find/install it?  it's not in my list for lsmod, and insmod can't find it either.  any help would be greatly apreciated in this matter!

If you're using 2.6.29, the ieee80211_crypt_tkip was renamed to lib80211_crypt_tkip.  Right now I believe that wiki is out of date for the new kernel so you might learn more from the AUR page for broadcom-wl.  http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=19514

Edited wiki to reflect the changes, but it probably needs a major rewriting.
Anyway
just depmod -a as root and then modprobe wl
