I guess there are some problems with ndiswrapper on kernel-2.4.26. I didn't
get ndiswraper worked with kernel-2.4.26.

how did you get ndiswrapper to work?  It worked for me for 2.6.23, but

not for 2.6.24.  I have a BCM4306 and I'm having some trouble getting

the kernel driver to work, so I'd like to use ndiswrapper in the mean

time.


I guess there are some problems with ndiswrapper on kernel-2.4.26.  I didn't get ndiswraper worked with kernel-2.4.26.

When I load ndiswrapper (yes I've rebuilt it :) I get no wlan0 like I

used to.
