I am installing ndiswrapper and can't get it to complete properly.
In the INSTALL it states:
You need a recent kernel, at least 2.6.16, with header files for the
kernel. Make sure there is a link to the kernel source from the modules
directory. The command
ls /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build
should have at least 'include' directory and '.config' file.
I have kernel 2.6.26 and I have installed both the kernel headers and the kernel
source but I still don't have the build directory and the required directory & file.
You don't need the kernel source, but rather the kernel include files.
These are in the package linux-headers-<version> .
OK, I did that and tried a few things, none of which worked.
I used aptitude to purge and install ndisgtk ndiswrapper-common
ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 and then:
ndiswrapper -i /media/disk/drivers/network/R174291/bvmwl5.inf
installing bcmwl5 ...
modprobe ndiswrapper
FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found.
The same thing happens when I use ndisgtk to install the drivers.
So, no difference, no joy ...
Any more help?
TIA!
Dennis
