I have Mandrake 10.0 and the Linksys WMPG54G PCI card.
I installed ndiswrapper and then typed:
ndiswrapper -i {path}/linksys/bcmwl5.inf
ndiswrapper -l reports:
- Can't use string (**) as an ARRAY ref while "strict refs" in use at
/usr/sbin/ndiswrapper
line 324, <L52> line 1
So I typed ndiswrapper -e bcmwl5, rebooted to XP, downloaded the
bcmwl5.inf driver from Broadcom, and then typed:
ndiswrapper -i {path}/broadcom/bcmwl5.inf
ndiswrapper -l reports:
Installed ndis drivers:
bcmwl5.inf
But the word "present" is not there. I know the card is present and
works because it works in XP.
{I also tried the broadcom bcmwl5a.inf driver as someone suggested,
but I get a similar error as with the Linksys-supplied driver.}
I need to get past this step before I can do the rest of the setup.
What am I missing?
Thanks.
