[opensuse] Ndisinstaller question.
Hi. I have tried to use the Ndisinstaller on opensuse10.3 At the point of startup, Ndiswrapper show, that it cannot find 'kernel-headers' And the installed 'kernel-headers' are named linux-kernel-headers-2.6.22-19 in the 10.3 install. How can I change the name so that I can use Ndisinstaller ? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Try reinstalling the latest kernel headers through yast. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Thanks for the advice, but unforunately it didn't work
Try installing the linux kernel development files: yast2 -> Filter: Patters -> Development -Linux Kernel development -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

kernel headers refer to the kernel source, but you do not need to install ndiswrapper from source. Just make sure you install both ndiswrapper AND the ndiswrapper-kmp package that matches your kernel. That package is prepackaged for your system and available via Yast assuming you have setup the oss repo and update repo. -- Joe Morris Registered Linux user 231871 running openSUSE 10.3 x86_64 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Guess I should have checked first, I thought ndisinstaller was a typo. :-[ You should only need your kernel source installed, but make sure you have the appropriate ndiswrapper-kmp package to match your kernel installed. -- Joe Morris Registered Linux user 231871 running openSUSE 10.3 x86_64 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Yes could have been so, but I also first encountered the "typo" as I look for ndiswrapper, and had the idea, that it was stuff for me :-) Thanks for the info on the kernel source as well as the ndiswrapper-kmp package.

As I tried it again, having the necessary options installed, it told me, that the ndiswrapper was installed, and stopped. I uninstalled and ran th ndisinstaller again. I'm a bit trapped, as it searches for the necessary windows wlan files, but I'm not sure what it what to search for the installer. I have copied the files to a directory, and have the wlan card's cd-rom in the cd-rom drive, but cannto see how to chose the files. The files are greyed! I have here what I see on the screen: http://www.urbakken.dk/ndisinstaller1.jpg Hope someone can hel me. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Err, what is that?! Have you tried installing the driver through the cli with: # ndiswrapper -i your_*.inf_file Off course this command should be run from the same directory the *.inf file is located. -- Regards, Aniruddha Please adhere to the OpenSUSE_mailing_list_netiquette http://en.opensuse.org/OpenSUSE_mailing_list_netiquette -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
