ianw1974 Posted August 28, 2005 Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 Check this link: http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawi...hp/Installation Scroll part way down to Installation, and it will list each item to go through to start installing and configuring ndiswrapper. But in a nutshell, it starts: make distclean make make install then after that: ndiswrapper -i name_of_driver_inf.inf (Windows XP driver for your wireless LAN card) with a: modprobe ndiswrapper to load the module. Then: ifconfig and see if you have a WLAN0 to configure. The documentation for the link is best to follow and work through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theYinYeti Posted August 29, 2005 Report Share Posted August 29, 2005 It is known to work with a few non-wireless cards. To have details, please go to http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net, and read the List of working hardware. Yves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
