I also went with the proprietary Linuxant driver solution out of time-challenges but they require a MAC address for the card and I was unable to acquire one. So, back to ndiswrapper:
You must have your kernel source installed in /usr/src/linux-2.6.n.n.n then in /lib/modules/2.6n.n.n you'll see what looks like a folder but is merely a link named build pointing to, in my case, /usr/src/linux-2.6.5-7.95-obj/i386/default
Without the src and that pointer you're dead.
Here is what I actually see: linux:/home/edoc/downloads/drivers # cd /usr/src/ linux:/usr/src # ls . .. kernel-modules linux-2.6.8-24.5-obj packages linux:/usr/src # cd linux-2.6.8-24.5-obj linux:/usr/src/linux-2.6.8-24.5-obj # ls . .. i386 linux:/usr/src/linux-2.6.8-24.5-obj # cd i386 linux:/usr/src/linux-2.6.8-24.5-obj/i386 # ls . .. default linux:/usr/src/linux-2.6.8-24.5-obj/i386 # cd default linux:/usr/src/linux-2.6.8-24.5-obj/i386/default # ls . .. Module.symvers linux:/usr/src/linux-2.6.8-24.5-obj/i386/default # Is this sufficient to proceed? -- Thanks! & 73, doc kd4e A blessed and joy-filled New Year to all! West Central Florida 100% Linux.
