Hi John,

you inadvertently modified /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, probably by typing
apt-get install linus-headers-2.6.26-1-amd64 >> etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
or something similar. Just edit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist with your
favorite editor, delete line 63 onwards (you can delete any line not
starting with "blacklist" in there) and save it.
Additionally, you don't have the ndiswrapper kernel module. Why don't
you follow the official instructions at
http://wiki.debian.org/NdisWrapper#head-dcf7b280d908028971b8420f6f8008687f89cde5
for that?

Cheers,

Philipp Hagemeister
