My guess is it should be bclwl5, not bcmw15 (the 5th character is
letter 'l', not digit '1'). You shouldn't have to copy the files into
/lib/anywhere; as long as ndiswrapper tool can access them when
installed, it is enough. Note that inf file is not really driver file
- it just describes what the driver file is and what devices and
settings the driver is for. The driver files (usually one, but some
drivers use two) are .sys files, firmware files used by some drivers
are .bin files (Linksys WUSB11v4 uses .out file). The .conf files are
generated by ndiswrapper from .inf file and .inf file is not ever used
by ndiswrapper after it is installed.
