Re: Re: Can't locate ndiswrapper module!



Thanks for all the replies.

Yes, I'm running Lenny with standard Debian kernel 2.6.26-2-486, and in doing so was hoping to avoid having to compile ndiswrapper. However, I have now done so. (It was not fast!)

Chris Bannister's comment about PCcard v. Cardbus may be an issue - the card is Cardbus, the laptop recognises the card with lspci, but I don't yet know if the laptop is fully Cardbus compatible.

If I read Geoff Simmons correctly, the pre-compiled modules do not exist any more. My reference was to 'stable' distribution package of ndiswrapper-source on Debian website which suggests that the modules do exist. Seems as though that page needs updating to remove the reference. I note that the corresponding page for Squeeze has no reference to pre-compiled modules.

Thanks again. I still have some work to do to see if I can get this card working.
