Hi Darren,

you said, you just had to install the kernel-headers (+compiler stuff)? On sourceforge (http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Distributions ) it says that you also need kernel-sources,... what about that?? Didn't you install them??

Is the package "linux-kernel-headers" enough or did you install a specific one like "linux-headers-2.6.8.1-3"??

Sorry, if this should be clear but i didn't use Debian before and configuring a kernel without "make menuconfig" seems rather strange to me ;-)

Thanks in advance 
André
