Trying to setup ndiswrapper

[Paul Thompson]

Oliver, tried that, this is what I get

root at del9100:/home/pjt # ndiswrapper -i /home/pjt/Desktop/bcmwl5.inf
bcmwl5 is already installed. Use -e to remove it
root at del9100:/home/pjt #

so went on to the next step

root at del9100:/home/pjt # ndiswrapper -m
modprobe config already contains alias directive

so next

root at del9100:/home/pjt # sed -e 's/RadioState|1/RadioState|0/'
/etc/ndiswrapper/bcmwl5/*.conf
sed: can't read /etc/ndiswrapper/bcmwl5/*.conf: No such file or directory
root at del9100:/home/pjt #

The p[roblem is that there is no ndiwrapper in /etc

if I do a file search on ndiswrapper, I find

/lib/modules/2.6.10-5-386/kernel/drivers/net/ndiswrapper
/lib/modules/2.6.10-5-386/kernel/drivers/net/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko

Thank in advance, Paul
