Hi,
It seems to work on my computer as well now (it works if you get this
email :) ). I have only one configuration problem. If I try to automize
the process, then, following the instructions in the Readme-file, I get
an error message when typing
poincare:/usr/ndiswrapper/utils # depmod -a
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/2.4.21-144-default/misc/ndiswrapper.o
However, when I load this driver manually (using insmod), then it works.
Maybe I do a general mistake.
Also, what does not work, is the following: If I boot with the usual
Ethernet-Cable plugged in (usual LAN), configure the wlan until it seems
to work, and plug out the Ethernet cable, then the addresses do not
resolve, i.e. I canīt use the wlan really. On the other hand, if I boot
with the lan-cable plugged out and do the same procedure, then it works.
Do you have an idea how to solve this problem? Is there any possibility
to "restart" the whole network as during the boot-time?
Bests and many thanks,
Raphael
