well, I've snagged the 2.6.11 kernel source rpm from redhat for fedora core 3 and recompiled the kernel with the 4k stack option turned off, and the highmem option turned off, and I'm still having trouble getting my Linksys WMP54GS card to work with ndiswrapper v1.1 and v1.2. When I do a 'ndiswrapper -i BCMWL5.inf" it seems to install the driver just fine. But when I do a 'ndiswrapper -l' it does not say that it detects the hardware. The only thing it returns is this: [root@linux linksys-old]# ndiswrapper -i BCMWL5.inf=20 Installing bcmwl5 [root@linux linksys-old]# ndiswrapper -l Installed ndis drivers: bcmwl5 driver present=20 So I issue a command to tell it which device to use: [root@linux linksys-old]# ndiswrapper -d 14e4:4306 bcmwl5 Driver 'bcmwl5' is used for '14E4:4306' and then 'modprobe ndiswrapper' to load the module. This returns me to the command prompt with no errors, and the machine doesn't lockup so I assume the driver loads ok. But the device still doesn't show up. Issuing a 'dmesg' returns these last few lines: ndiswrapper version 1.2 loaded (preempt=3Dyes,smp=3Dno) ndiswrapper: driver bcmwl5 (Linksys,02/19/2004, 3.50.21.11) loaded ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKF] enabled at IRQ 3 PCI: setting IRQ 3 as level-triggered ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:02:0d.0[A] -> GSI 3 (level, low) -> IRQ 3 ndiswrapper (NdisWriteErrorLogEntry:314): log: C000138B, count: 1 (00000009), return address: e0a62168 ndiswrapper (ndiswrapper_add_pci_device:218): Windows driver couldn't initialize the device (C0000001) ndiswrapper: probe of 0000:02:0d.0 failed with error -22 I juggled PCI slots around until I got the card on its own IRQ, and still no dice. I've tried the driver from the recommended WMP54GS_20040423.exe as well as the newer WMP54GS_20050406.exe and even the one that came with the card on CD, which appears to be the same one in WMP54GS_20040423.exe anyways. None of them work, all give the same error -22 as shown above. Obviously I've become aggravated enough to come here to bother you guys in hopes of someone pointing out something I've missed, hehe. I *think* I've tried everything you're supposed to try, but perhaps I'm overlooking something... --=20 Clayton Macleod |

argh, well, ignore this. Freakin' card doesn't want to work in windows either, guess it died sometime between now and the last time it was used. Figures eh? hehe.
