I've got a 64bit 2.6.24-gentoo-r8. I can't get the wireless card working becouse modprobing the ndiswrapper fails.

The card works with the net5211 driver on other distros (fedora, suse).

This means you are also either automatically loading the ath_pci driver, or you have it enabled and compiled into your kernel. This will cause a conflict, and your wireless will not work. Pick either the in-kernel driver, or ndiswrapper, not both.
Blessed be!

Hi i have a 5007EG too... but i need to load the ndiswrapper, unload it, an reload it to get my card working (make a AP/Ad-Hoc assosiation)... any idea?? it's a ndiswrapper issue or a iwconfig fault?
Thanks! _________________ Si no es para GTK o línea de comando, es basura! (?) |

It could be the kernel version, driver age and version, and a few other things that will determine whether or not ndiswrapper will work properly. The most important thing is to use a kernel <=2.6.22.19 or >=2.6.25. .23 and .24 kernels have no ndiswrapper support.
Blessed be!
