See this:

Since you are using Mint 9, which is the same as Ubuntu 10.04, you may be able to update the kernel. (Can be done with MintUpdate) Or you can try installing the driver as per the instructions.

Sir, only difference is that current driver has different name then the one in the manual

I did all but on the 7th step I got output
