Hi, I am trying to get this wireless adapter to work for a long time now. I have a DELL 1370 Mini-PCI and I am trying to use ndiswrapper to install the windows XP driver downloaded from DELL's website.
My dmesg gives me this output for ndiswrapper: ndiswrapper version 1.1 loaded (preempt=yes,smp=no) ndiswrapper (wrapper_init:1534): loadndiswrapper failed (1792); check system log for messages from 'loadndisdriver' My sequence of commands was: #ndiswrapper -l No drivers installed # ndiswrapper -i DRIVER/bcmwl5.inf Installing bcmwl5 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 Forcing parameter IBSSGMode|0 to IBSSGMode|2 #ndiswrapper -l Installed ndis drivers: bcmwl5 driver present, hardware present #iwconfig lo no wireless extensions. eth0 no wireless extensions. sit0 no wireless extensions. #iwlist sit0 scan sit0 Interface doesn't support scanning. Since I dont have the wireless extension installed it doesnt surprise me that the scan doesnt work. Can anyone help me? I am trapped in this and this is the last step to finish my laptop's setup so it is fully useable. Thanks for any help provided, __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
