[Bug 194714] Re: [Hardy] ndiswrapper does not function with 2.6.24, causes lockup and instability

[dsobiera]

Thanks Roel.  I just bought a $21 ASUS WL138G V2 PCI from new egg.  So
it's worth a shot and cheap enough that if it doesn't work - eh...at
least I tried.  If this does work out of the box (or even if it doesn't)
I really hope Ubuntu decides to update their nearly worthless
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported page.
I understand it is a community based one but it doesn't have Ubuntu
releases (that I could find) as columns.  I understand the "free" folks
would say to "support vendors that do opensource or friendly hardware".
Hey, I'm all for that. But where in the heck do we find an easily found
and readable list to do just that?  One cannot take a stand to do the
right thing and then not give someone the means to do just that.   Very
poor marketing done here with an LTS release. Which surprises me as one
of Ubuntu's strength has been solid marketing on other areas. *shrug*

 Assuming this ticket is still open, when I get my ASUS card I'll
install it and Hardy and post my results.
