Re: ndiswrapper and kernel source

[Manu <seatmanu@yahoo.com>]

I have it installed but it gives me some warnings that
the kernel source are not configured...

Also now I tried again and I have a different error:


# build and install the module
/usr/bin/make KPKG_EXTRAV_ARG= KSRC=/usr/src/linux \
KVER=2.6.10-9-amd64-k8 \

install

		  make[1]: *** [default] Error 2
		  make[1]: Leaving directory
`/usr/src/modules/ndiswrapper'
		  make: *** [binary-modules] Error 2

Any idea?

This is the last piece I need to configure on my
laptop but it is really frustrating!

Thanks
