Are you using a 2.6 kernel? AFAIK ndiswrapper needs one of those.
Yes I got 2.6, read the README before installing !!
dmesg shows the following :
ndiswrapper version 0.5 loaded
ndiswrapper adding w70n51.sys
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 00620061
[snip]
looks really bad, might need some kernel hacking
:( ! Anyone any
solution ideas ??
Maybe ask Intel nicely for a driver? ;-)
Already did, found a petition time ago where I signed !
will try the new intel based project
http://ipw2100.sourceforge.net/ now ;)
Hmm... reportedly it'll work even less than ndiswrapper...
Oh, bad :(
pessimistic greetings, Eric
don't worry be happy ;)
