As I've just filed bug 155723 - "ndiswrapper module missing" it would be difficult for NetworkManager to support ndiswrapper. Let's wait for the ndiswrapper fix first.
Please note bug #155285
The package you want is ndiswrapper-kmp-<flavour> where <flavour> is the type of kernel you have (smp in my case).
And NetworkManager supports whatever network devices the kernel does, so all you need to do is setup the NDIS driver in ndiswrapper and you're away.
AJ fixed it right now! Therefore: problem gone, great! It's part of the factory tree already and therefore part of the distro: rug search ndiswrapper S | Catalog | Bundle | Name | Version | Arch --+---------+--------+-------------------------+--------------------------+----- | factory | | ndiswrapper | 1.10-5 | i586 | factory | | ndiswrapper-debuginfo | 1.10-5 | i586 | factory | | ndiswrapper-kmp-bigsmp | 1.10_2.6.16_rc5_git2_3-5 | i586 | factory | | ndiswrapper-kmp-debug | 1.10_2.6.16_rc5_git2_3-5 | i586 | factory | | ndiswrapper-kmp-default | 1.10_2.6.16_rc5_git2_3-5 | i586 | factory | | ndiswrapper-kmp-smp | 1.10_2.6.16_rc5_git2_3-5 | i586 | factory | | ndiswrapper-kmp-xen | 1.10_2.6.16_rc5_git2_3-5 | i586 | factory | | ndiswrapper-kmp-xenpae | 1.10_2.6.16_rc5_git2_3-5 | i586
