[ltp] Aironet Wireless on T40

I've resorted to try install an earlier version of Ndiswrapper. I now get 
the following error when trying to load the driver: 'utils /loaddriver 
<vendor> <device> <sysfile> <inffile>'

I get the following error in dmesg - Unknown symbol: 
NDIS:SYS:NdisPacketPoolUsage
                                                 Unable to prepare driver.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Siraj
