[Ndiswrapper-general] fedora5-ndiswrapper-1.16-gigaset 108 usb adapter

[ruud v. <r.v...@kp...>]

Nidiswrapper-1.16 operates well with fedora 4 and the gigaset 108 usb
adater. This adapter has two drivers athfmwdl (initialisation) and
netwg11t (communication). Below it is seen that both drivers are
correctly loaded by ndiswrapper in fedora 4 16k stack kernel. The
combination with wpa_supplicant-4.8 provides excellent connction with
the internet.

However with fedora 5 this is not the case. There are no compilation
errors. Modprobe works fine. Installing the drivers is ok. Hovever
during the boot-proces the initialisation by ndiswrapper is not
performed. (See below). The configuration file (ifcfg-wlan0),
keys-wlan0, hosts and resolv.conf are all the same. I  change the port
129B:160B in 129B:160C but that causes a large amount of
(address-)errors. I presume that it has something to do with the
interaction between ndiswrapper and the hardware initialisation in the
file rc.sysinit. 

Many attemps has been tried (reproduction rc.sysinit, other (lower)
version of ndiswrapper (version 1.7) etc) Nothing helps.

Is there anyone who can helps me. Thanks a lot.
