Description Antonio Bonifacio 2005-09-20 01:26:04 UTC

I have installed [AirConn] INPROCOMM IPN 2220 Wireless LAN Adapter (rev 01)
WinXp_64 drivers with ndiswapper, but when I launch 'modprobe ndiswrapper', I
receive this error message:

"FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found."

suse:/# rpm -qf /lib/modules/2.6.13-16-default/extra/ndiswrapper.ko
kernel-default-2.6.13-16

Same problem on SUSE 10.0 Final GM, on x86_64 platform.
File /lib/modules/2.6.13-15-default/extra/ndiswrapper.ko doesn't exist.

I discovered a thing: package km_ndiswrapper-1.2-2.x86_64.rpm is missing from
the DVD. I downloaded from 

http://ftp.opensuse.org/pub/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.0-OSS/inst-source/suse/x86_64/

Installed it, and then:

cd /usr/src/kernel-modules/ndiswrapper/
make
make install
depmod -a

and now ndiswrapper module works.

As Werner shown, it is fixed in recent versions.
