Hi, i just got a NetGear WG111 USB adapter, and im trying to set it up with ndiswrapper. all is good, except for loading the module. this is the relevant output of dmesg:
ndiswrapper version 1.2 loaded (preempt=no,smp=no) ndiswrapper: driver netwg111 (NETGEAR, Inc.,03/03/2004, 1.0.8.4) loaded ndiswrapper (NdisWriteErrorLogEntry:314): log: C000138A, count: 3 (c0000001), return address: c4983fe3 ndiswrapper (ndiswrapper_add_usb_device:363): Windows driver couldn't initialize the device (C0010006) ndiswrapper: probe of 1-1:1.0 failed with error -22 usbcore: registered new driver ndiswrapper modprobe doesnt get the same output, tho, this is the output of dmesg when I modprobe it (the previous one was at reboot): ndiswrapper version 1.2 loaded (preempt=no,smp=no) usbcore: registered new driver ndiswrapper I followd this guide in the forums: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-364599.html The only difference I see between the output im supposed to be getting and the one I get that could cause a problem is this line: ndiswrapper version 1.2 loaded (preempt=no,smp=no) <---- MINE ndiswrapper version 1.1 loaded (preempt=yes,smp=no) <---- ORIGINAL Just to be sure, i unmasked ndiswrapper and installed 1.16, but I get almost the same output: ndiswrapper version 1.16 loaded (preempt=no,smp=no) usbcore: registered new driver ndiswrapper this is lsusb: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0846:4240 NetGear, Inc.

I dont think that could be a problem, but who knows. I havent found anyone on the forums or #gentoo with the same problem, or any information in #nidwrapper or the wiki. -- Gabriel Dain -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
