Ndiswrapper



Hello:

I am a newbie in Debian with a tiny experience in Mandrake.

I have been trying to put my wireless adapter at work in Debian. Compilation 
of the binary drivers was impossible, so I am trying to install ndiswrapper. 
For that I need the kernel-source which matches my kernel and a symbolic link 
"linux" in /usr/src pointing to the kernel-source also in /usr/src. I have 
set up all this.

For compiling and installing Ndiswrapper I am following the instructions in 
sourceforge.net:

http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/InstallDebian,

(should you like to have a peep). Problem is, I run into problems when I try 
to compile the Ndiswrapper package. Doing: "fakeroot debian/rules 
binary-modules" gives me the error: "Can't find kernel sources 
in /usr/src/linux;". I do not know what to do now, I do not know if the 
kernel-source lacks something, what I am doing is correct, or I am simply too 
newbie.

I would appreciate is someone helps me install Ndiswrapper in my Debian 
3.1r0a-i386. Thanks.

Teilhard.
