Hello,

I installed ndiswrapper 1.0rc2 and I can use my Netgear WG511 with this driver. I also have a builtin card the ipw2100 and I would also like to use ndiswrapper to work with this card.

I have installed both cards with ndiswrapper -i foo.inf, but the ipw2100 can not be started, because there too many conf files in /etc/ndiswrapper/w70n51

Code:

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root      48 16. Jan 10:38 8086:1043.conf -> /etc/ndiswrapper/w70n51/8086:1043:8086:2520.conf

Here is my lspci -v and lspci -n:

Code:

0000:02:04.0 Network controller: Intel Corp. PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter (rev 04)
        Subsystem: Intel Corp. MIM2000/Centrino
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 10
        Memory at d0214000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable)
        Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2

0000:02:04.0 Class 0280: 8086:1043 (rev 04)


Which one do I need here?

I do not like the ipw2100.sf.net driver, because the link is unstable and I can not modprobe the driver at startup, because the card is always turned on. It does not support the RF switch (The rf switch project has no drivers for my MaxData 8000X pro).

I remember I had the ndiswrapper working once with this card and the RF switch worked like a charme.

Please, can somebody help me with this?

Thanks in advance

Christian

why don't you
Code:

emerge ipw2100

and use the drivers from http://ipw2100.sf.net?

They work fine for me - modprobe is no problem - also the radio switch on my Samsung X30 Notebook works fine...
