Hi

I'm running SLED 10 desktop and I downloaded ndiswrapper using yast.
Everything
works until I try to load the module when I get this:

# uname -a
Linux morgoth 2.6.16.21-0.8-default #1 Mon Jul 3 18:25:39 UTC 2006 i686
athlon i386 GNU/Linux
# modprobe ndiswrapper
FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper
(/lib/modules/2.6.16.21-0.8-default/updates/ndiswrapper.ko): Invalid
argument

Anyone know what might be wrong?

Thanks

I found this link to be invaluable in helping me to setup my Dell Latitude
D800 with a Truemobile Wireless WLAN 1450 card in it:
http://nextgen.no-ip.org/~andrew/linux/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapperinfo10.php.
The thing to watch for is the type of chipset on your card. Mine has a
Broadcom 43XX series (forget exactly which one).

Hope this helps,
~Mark
