i'm trying to install the xp drivers like this:

copy to ~/wireless

Code Sample

ndiswrapper -i ~/wireless/drivers.inf
ndiswrapper -m
modprobe ndiswrapper
ndiswrapper -l
Installed ndis drivers:
tnet1130 hardware NOT present

do i need to copy firmware to my hd somewhere?

i would prefer ndis as it supports WEP (current linux acx111 drivers don't).

thx

-lspci identifies the card
-some status command (don't remmeber now) shows voltage 3.3v which seems normal.
-tried rebooting, modprobing ndiswrapper, etc.. same results: hardware NOT present

do i need some dsl wireless packages perhaps? very lost here :\

one year later...
i too am having this issue, sort of. i can see the card as present, but
# ndiswrapper -m
# modprobe ndiswrapper
does nothing to turn the card "on" nor does it connect to my unsecured router.

Anyone solve this?
