Hi there!

This is not a bug, but a request. If it isn't the right place, please
address me there :)

I was thinking that still nowadays, many wireless cards need (or they
work better with..) ndiswrapper: that include most broadcomm chipsets
(nearly all turion machines?, VERY common), my InProComm 2220 card (in
some toshiba L series and many cheap acer laptops), ralink sometimes (if
you want to use network manager with them and you can also troubleshoot)
and another amount of devices (some atheros too, I believe).

So, in order to make it easier to newbies, why not include ndiswrapper-
utils and ndisgtk installed by default? It doesn't need much space (and
if it does, more people would be glad to have it default than people
complain about sound-juicer or serpentine missing.. ;))

Thanks for you time
