  • Comment: WiFix installs wrong version of NDISwrapper

    The installer now accept an argument specifying the latest version of NDISwrapper. We have to keep this up-to-date in our database. There's a new release today that reflects this change.

  • WiFix installs wrong version of NDISwrapper

    The version of NDISwrapper according to our driver database is 1.52, yet 1.51 is getting installed. The installer script is fetching ndiswrapper-1.51.tar.gz instead of 1.52. This causes the installer to install NDISwrapper *every time* the installer is run.

    We need to create a reverse mapping from drivers to the cards supported by them; it'll be for internal purposes. Given a device name (e.g., RT73USB v4), we need to be able to find the corresponding driver for the device, should the existing one become unavailable for any reason.

  • Automatically quarantine unavailable drivers

    All too often, drivers are available for a limited time. I've written a script that uses the linkchecker program to ascertain whether the various drivers used are still available or not. This should be set up as a cron job on the server and should automatically remove any drivers that become unavailable for any reason. They should be placed in a quarantine for admin oversight; if the links are...
