Folks,
I'm using ndiswrapper for the wifi driver I need for my Linksys PCMCIA card. I can load ndiswrapper manually with modprobe each time I power up the laptop, and things work fine. But when I run ndiswrapper -m so that it automatically starts during boot-up, I get the following error message in dmesg:
ndiswrapper: module not supported by Novell, setting U tain flag.
Yet the next two lines show ndiswrapper v. 1.1 loaded, as well as the Linksys driver.
The bottom line: I can't get ndiswrapper to activate on start-up, but I can (and do) manually start it with modprobe ndiswrapper after starup.
What steps have I failed to take (I followed the SuSE ndiswrapper instructions at Novell's web site)?
Did you add the info to /etc/sysconfig/kernel ? Add ndiswrapper to the MODULES_LOADED_ON_BOOT section. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge
