If you have been experiencing keyboard lockups or kernel freezes (especially Centrino 2200 users), upgrade to latest CVS. Note that you need to reinstall not only the ndiswrapper module, but the utils and then windows drivers. CVS also reportedly fixes WEP with restricted mode for Centrino 2200. If you experience any problems, from now, run ndiswrapper-buginfo script (it is installed by default in /usr/sbin) and submit /tmp/ndiswrapper-buginfo.gz created by it. Wiki entry WirelessCardSetup gives instructions about getting CVS or latest nightly tar ball. -- Giri |

Giri - Tested CVS with the 2.6.8-rc3 kernel on Gentoo, also tested on 2.6.7 with mostly success. Everything works but I will note that I was stumped for a second. I had to pass 'hangcheck_interval=-1' during the modprobe on the 2.6.8-rc3 kernel, which isn't a problem, but I didn't have to do it before. Otherwise, I couldn't associate with the WAP and my dmesg was filled with messages talking about resetting wlan0. I did test this with WEP but not without WEP. I can check that tomorrow if you'd like or if someone else did it, fine.
