[Bug 111530] Re: Ndiswrapper sees r818x as loaded (while it's not)

[m_bridge]

i's strange, I'm experiencing the same behaviour also on another machine with a D-Link wireless card (rt61 module)
maybe there is just something wrong with my procedure to install ndiswrapper, i'm following the instructions for edgy 
here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper

bridge at stregatto:~$ uname -a
Linux stregatto 2.6.20-15-generic #2 SMP Sun Apr 15 07:36:31 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux

on this machine rt61 is blacklisted
/etc/modprobe.d/aliases contains the line "alias wlan0 ndiswrapper"
/etc/network/interfaces contains wlan0 (default configuration:  auto wlan0, interface wlan0 inet dhcp,)

i tried to remove and insert ndiswrapper as you suggested

bridge at stregatto:~$ lsmod|grep rt

(JUST TO SHOW RT61 IS NOW LOADED)

bridge at stregatto:~$ ndiswrapper -l
