[Ndiswrapper-general] Re: [PATCH] lspci regex fix

[Joel H. <joe...@st...>]

Hi!

My problem:
I can't install ndiswrapper-0.9. Have installed ndiswrapper-0.6+CVS on 
the same machine before. No changes in hardware, but now I've got a 
newer debian/unstable.
 
I think I need your patch, only I don't  know what to do with it?!


My questions:
Have I made any obvious mistakes?
Do I need your patch? If so - what do I do with it?

Details:
I once had ndiswrapper 0.6+CVS up and running with debian/unstable and 
kernel 2.4.25 and intel2100b win driver on a Dell Latitude D600. Then an 
accident happened and I had to reinstall debian. Now I've got a 2.6.7 
kernel, the same win driver, and ndiswrapper-0.9 that I got from 
rigtorp.se using apt-get and I can't get it to work. I've tried other 
win drivers too, but every time ndiswrapper -l gives me
xxx hardware NOT present

I tried "modprobe ndiswrapper" anyway, but that only gives me "FATAL: 
Module ndiswrapper not found."

I also tried downloading the ndiswrapper source but I couldn't manage to 
build it. make gives me:
make -C driver
make[1]: Entering directory 
`/home/yohell/download/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper-0.9/driver'
You don't seem to have sources for your kernel;  install them in 
/usr/src, link /lib/modules/2.6.7-1-386/build to it and try again.
make[1]: *** [prereq_check] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory 
`/home/yohell/download/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper-0.9/driver'
make: *** [all] Error 2

"/lib/modules/2.6.7-1-386/build" is a symlink to 
"/usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.7/". The kernel comes from the netinstall CD 
(or from the following dist-upgrade, not sure) and the source is the 
most similar thing that I could find using apt-get from ftp.funet.fi.

This really bothers me since I had it running nice and clean before the 
reinstall. I'd be eternally grateful for any pointers you might have to 
set me back on track again.
Thanks in advance
