Installing a new wireless network card

[Eamonn Sullivan]

OK, I've gotten the card installed. Of course, it's a v2 and thus uses
the acx111 chipset. Warty, by itself, sees the card (and scolds me in
dmesg for using it instead of prism* based card), but fails to get it
working. However, ndiswrapper works fine.

if I do 

# modprobe ndiswrapper

The wireless card loads and I can configure and use it. How do I get
that to work during boot?
