[Bug 194714] Re: [Hardy] ndiswrapper does not function with 2.6.24

[dsobiera]

Same problem here.  I am trying to use wmp54gs. In both Feisty and Gutsy
ndiswrapper was rock solid with weeks uptime.  This uptime was pushing
100's of GBs to my HTPC from my machine.  It just worked. I re-installed
Gutsy until this is resolved.  I read the reason for the problems (Linux
and GPL symbols in the kernel) but sadly one of the reasons I went with
Ubuntu over Debian was its less zealous attitude towards proprietary
drivers. It may be an evil but it is a necessary evil right now.  So
killing ndiswrapper really has hurt Linux desktop adoption among
wireless users (historically a long standing problem group).   A pity,
really.
