    ndiswrapper wont respond with Suse 10.0

    1. Install the kernel source package BEFORE installing the ndiswrapper package? yes the Kerel Source package is installed, there is a check mark next to it in YaST>Software Management. 2. Remove the old ndiswrapper modules that come with SuSE, as outlined in the article, before installing the new package? There was no check in the box next to Ndiswrapper in YaST>Software Management (even after i install it with the extracted files the box is still unchecked, is it suppose to be?) And yes i used make clean and make install i also did ndiswrapper -e bcwml5 to remove the driver before i did make clean. "It may be that you forgot to remove the old ndiswrapper drivers that came with SuSE" and how can i remove the old drivers that came with SuSE? ndiswrapper is uninstalled before i do anything.
  2. i installed ndiswrapper from source forge http://sourceforge.net/projects/ndiswrapper/ and read nearly every thread about ndiswrapper installed and reinstalled ndiswrapper numerous times, tried different commands that ppl posted and different techniques following these steps i even chatted with the guy that wrote this page http://nextgen.no-ip.org/~andrew/linux/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapperinfo10.php i have the compaq v2710us with the Broadcom model BCM4318[AirForce One 54g] Wireless LAN Controller im using the drivers that are for the laptop's WiFi card for WinXP im using Ndiswrapper version 1.21 here are some other facts ndiswrapper -l Installed Drivers: bcmwl5 Driver Installed, Hardware Present modprobe ndiswrapper <nothing> ifup wlan0 ERROR: Interface wlan0 is not available ifstatus wlan0 ERROR: Interface wlan0 is not available dmesg http://www.openalfred.com/chuck/Screenshot.jpg <read the bottom of the picture output about ndiswrapper> I really dont like wat dmesg is giving me, everything seems fine till i 'rmmod ndisrapper' then 'modprobe ndiswrapper' and get that right after in my 'dmesg'. any ideas or in need or more info
