[Ndiswrapper-general] belkin F5D6001au PCI wireless adaptor

[Mark A. W. <mw...@cs...>]

Hi,

I'm having some problems getting the Belkin F5D6001au working with
ndiswrapper. I downloaded & compiled the latest cvs with the DEBUG flag on
(btw, what's up with declaring variables halfway through a function in C?
easy to fix, but strange to see it there) and tried with the Belkin
drivers on the cd.

Anyway, when I try to modprobe ndiswrapper, I get this from dmesg:

ndiswrapper version 0.4+CVS loaded

The machine stays responsive, except that every "ifconfig" command I try
hangs.

I'm using Debian testing/unstable, and Linux version 2.4.24. MODVERSIONS
is off (which required a makefile change in ndiswrapper to get it to
compile).

lspci -vv gives:

Any ideas? Information on this card is a bit sketchy.

Cheers,
