Re: [Ndiswrapper-general] - ndiswrapper v2.9 error message "wrong bustype" (Belkin F5D7051)]

[Patrick K. <pat...@bt...>]

Hi,

Further progress!

Found a bug report from some time ago. Apparently when parsing usb 
devices the wrong bus type is appended to the name of the config file.

I renamed  50D:5071.F.conf with 50D:5071.15.conf and then the
ndiswrapper -ma worked and gave:-

module configuration information is stored in /etc/modules.d/ndiswrapper

which contains  alias usb:v050dp7051d*dc*dcc*dp*ic*isc*ipx ndiswrapper

after modprobe ndiswrapper dmesg gives:-

ndiswrapper version v1.29 loaded (prempt=no,smp=yes)
usbcore: registered new driver ndiswrapper.

Unfortunately still no sign of wlan0 !

What should I look for next?

Hi,

I am attempting to install a Belkin F5D7051 usb stick 125mbps interface.
(It uses Broadcom BCM4320 chip.)

I followed the usual procedure,  extracted XP drivers bcmrndis.inf,
usb8023k.sys and rndismpk.sys from Belkin CD, put in /root

did ndiswrapper -i /root/bcmrndis.inf

ndiswrapper created bcmrndis in ndiswrapper directory.. BUT I had to
hand copy sys files to bcmrndis directory.. (known problem)

ndiswrapper -l gives:-

installed drivers:
bcmrndis driver installed, hardware (1241:1122) present

THIS IS WRONG--- I have two usb devices a Belkin mouse and the Belkin
wifi stick. Ndiswrapper has picked up my mouse!

  >># lsusb

Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 1241:1122 Belkin
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 050d:7051 Belkin Components

I looked in bcmrndis folder and found two conf files 050d:7051.F.conf
and 1241.1122.F.conf

I deleted the 1241.1122.F.conf file, then:-

  >># ndiswrapper -l
installed drivers:
bcmrndis driver installed, hardware (050D:7051) present

Great I thought I am nearly there!

Then I did:-

  >># ndiswrapper -ma

This returned:-

wrong bustype (F) for configuration file 050D:7051.F.conf - ignoring it
module configuration information is stored in /etc/modules.d/ndiswrapper

What does this error mean,

What have I done wrong?

(BTW There is nothing in /etc/modules.d/ndiswrapper )

For kicks I tried to  modprobe ndiswrapper, it installed could be seen
in dmesg, however there is NO wlan created of any sort.

regards

Patrick
