Hello,
I'm running hoary on a Dell Latitude X300 with a Broadcom BCM4306 wifi
card. In an attempt to get wireless working, I've followed the
instructions ``How To - Set up Ndiswrapper''
http://www.ubuntulinux.org/support/documentation/howto/ndiswrapper
First I installed ndiswrapper-utils, and ran it with
ndiswrapper -i bcmwl5a.inf
Now, I'd like to load the ndiswrapper modules:
modprobe ndiswrapper
but this gives the error:
FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.8.1-3-386/kernel/drivers/net/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko): Invalid module format
I tried with 2.6.8.1-3-386 (version 19) from hoary. I had the same
problem with 2.6.9 from hoary as well.
Any suggestions?
Googling found similar cases, but no help.
Many thanks,
-James Leifer
