[Ndiswrapper-general] Netgear WG121 only works without high memory support enabled

[Peter S. <pe...@sp...>]

Hi all,

I'm new here so sorry if this has been answered before (I did do a search o=
f=20
the archive).

I had ndiswrapper working nicely with my Netgear USB WG121 until I added mo=
re=20
memory (to 1GB) and enabled the high memory support in my kernel as it was=
=20
only showing just over 880MB total. As you can guess that sorted the memory=
=20
problem but the wireless card stopped working, ndiswrapper complaining that=
=20
the windows driver couldn't register the device. I tried re-emerging=20
ndiswrapper (using Gentoo) and reinstalling the windows driver but to no=20
avail so I've had to revert to losing the top 120MB of my RAM.

Is this a known issue? I suspect that there's not much anyone but Netgear c=
an=20
do about it :(

Thanks.

Peter Spikings
