Hi Martin,

Thanks for your efforts. Hope there will be volunteers for other
distributions.

Hello,
as I am new to this list, first of all, I want to thank everybody who is 
contributing to this great piece of software!

Here is one desperate Mandrake user, I just tried it out, but I already have 
updated to the latest Mandrake kernel, therefore I get:
[root@... ndiswrapper]# ./install ../w70n51.sys ../w70n51.inf
This driver has been built for a 2.4.22-10mdk kernel
You are running a 2.4.22-26mdk kernel

I will try to replace your binary modules by the ones I have compiled and 
integrate them with your install script later today.
Thanks, Martin, for sharing your experience so practically,
Axel

Hi again,

I have inserted the modules compiled for my kernel into Martin's package 
and it works! Still, being new to Mandrake, I somehow must have messed 
up the Mandrake config files in earlier attempts and therefore I have to 
configure the wireless device manually.
Thanks Martin!

Hello Axel,

Are you using the 0.4 release of NdisWrapper or CVS? What name has been 
given to your network interface?

I have now updated my binary distribution so it works with the latest 
Mandrake kernel update (2.4.22-26mdk) as well as with the kernel in the 
original 9.2 distribution (2.4.22-10mdk).
