Fabio,
No I am not but that is because I gave up on trying to resolve it a couple
of months back.
1 - I use version 11 Ubuntu at this time.
2 - my resolution to the issue at the time was to trash the Netgear wireless
card and replace it with a Linksys card. Someone in a forum commented that
that was a wimpy solution on my part. It might have been but then, the
Linksys card worked out of the box and without needing NDIS.
I never did figure out why ndis kept crashing things.
Hope that helps.
Best regards,
jwferk

Title:
See question; #122091; WNDA3100v2 still fails; ndiswrapper crashes
system
Status in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-nettool
With reference to question 122091; first, I thank the responder for
the advice and effort to that question.
This is an effort to get a Netgear USB WNDAv2 wireless to work with
Ubuntu 10.
1 - installed wine to extract the driver file from Netgear.
2 - downloaded WNDA3100v2 Software versions 1.7, 1.6, 1.2, 1.1 and 1.0. I
did this because wine would not extract 1.1 through 1.7. I finally settled
on 1.0 which ran through the setup.exe routine in wine.
3 - copied the WinXP2000 file with the following files to /usr/local
-rwxrwxr-x 1 ferk ferk 7427 2009-06-08 11:52 bcmh43xx64.cat
-rwxrwxr-x 1 ferk ferk 7450 2009-06-08 11:52 bcmh43xx.cat
-rwxrwxr-x 1 ferk ferk 747008 2009-05-05 12:00 bcmwlhigh564.sys
-rwxrwxr-x 1 ferk ferk 167298 2009-05-15 11:58 bcmwlhigh5.inf
-rwxrwxr-x 1 ferk ferk 632576 2009-05-05 12:00 bcmwlhigh5.sys
4 - installed the latest version of ndiswrapper from sourceforge.
5 - ran ndiswrapper -i bcmwlhigh5.inf
6 - command ndiswrapper -l indicated both the device and the driver were
present
7 - loading the ndiswrapper did not solve the connection problem; the
wireless usb connection does not yet work. There is no output for wlan0 with
the iwconfig command. This shows no wireless device to be present.
8 - blacklisted the following in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf to
avoid any driver conflicts:
#conflict with ndsiwrapper
#(see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper)
blacklist bcm43xx
blacklist b43
blacklist b43legacy
blacklist ssb
NOW, an additional problem has popped-up. - Not only does the WNDA3100
still not work but I need to blacklist ndiswrapper at startup. Reason
is that if the ndiswrapper module is loaded at boot, the main login
screen no longer opens and I cannot login to the system. I need to
boot into failsafe at the root level and blacklist ndiswrapper, then
reboot the system.
If the ndiswrapper module is loaded at boot, I cannot even use the GUI
failsafe mode as no login screen appears.
I have reinstalled the OS three times today. I can confirm absolutely
that the system is completely current and that blacklisting
ndiswrapper prior to booting is the core of the problem. It does not
make any difference if I install ndiswrapper from Synaptic or from
Sourceforge.
