ndiswrapper with 2.6.24 kernels



Hi,

has anybody successfully installed the freshrpm's dkms-ndiswrapper package?

The installation itself is not the problem, but the kernel module compilation fails.

The kernel modules was usually compiled and properly installed with the execution of "/etc/init.d/dkms start". This command still does not show any error messages, but after returning after some seconds of operation, there's no kernel module in /lib/modules/`uname -r` which is confirmed by modprobe : "FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found."

Nobody's reporting any problems?! How are you using ndiswrapper WLAN adapters with F8 and 2.6.24.x kernels?

Thanks and greets
Boris
