Because my new laptop (formerly Alex's ... long story) has bum internal wireless, I bought an Airlink 101 USB wireless Realtek 8189). It's supported under ndiswrapper. I have it up to where iwlist wlan0 scan finds my router, but it freezes hard (power off) when I activate it.
During compile, ndiswrappes says: *** WARNING: This kernel uses 4K stack size option (CONFIG_4KSTACKS); many Windows drivers will not work with this option enabled. Disable CONFIG_4KSTACKS in kernel's .config file, recompile and install kernel This seems suspect, so I locate CONFIG_4KSTACKS in the .config and headers, change it from y to n, 1 to 0, do: make bzImage and get this: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2.6.18-53.el5-i686]# make bzImage scripts/kconfig/conf -s arch/i386/Kconfig CHK include/linux/version.h CHK include/linux/utsrelease.h HOSTCC scripts/genksyms/genksyms.o HOSTCC scripts/genksyms/lex.o HOSTCC scripts/genksyms/parse.o HOSTLD scripts/genksyms/genksyms CC scripts/mod/empty.o MKELF scripts/mod/elfconfig.h HOSTCC scripts/mod/file2alias.o HOSTCC scripts/mod/modpost.o HOSTCC scripts/mod/sumversion.o HOSTLD scripts/mod/modpost make[1]: *** No rule to make target `init/main.o', needed by `init/built-in.o'.
