Hey, Does the ndiswrapper works with a D-Link 650 Wireless card (PCMCIA)? If not, do you have other ideas to run the card ? Thanx you a lot! Normen |

If it is using prism chipset, then it is not known to work. Look at the FAQ for more details. -- Giri |

If it uses the Prism chipset why would you want to use ndiswrapper? You can use the native wlan drivers in Linux which would give you much better functionality I'd think.

D-Link has released at least a couple revisions of that card with various chipsets. You can check which yours is with lspci -v Some are supported under linux (with another driver, eg the Prism2 based cards) and some are not at all (ie the newest revision with the Realtek 8180 chipset). There has been some work to get ndiswrapper to work with Realtek 8180 based cards, but as of yet, they do not. =20 --=20 "Physics isn't difficult; it's just weird. -- Vincent Icke" -------------------------- Matthew Truch Department of Physics Brown University ma...@tr... http://matt.truch.net/ |
