Mick, |

Unless I'm mistaken, that module is ndiswrapper which was emerged |
13 |
again after the kernel was rebuilt. |

In case you're not familiar with it ndiswrapper wraps around a |
16 |
Windows driver that talks to the hardware. It's an interface between |
17 |
the Linux driver stack and the hardware running a Windows driver. |
18 |
There is no apparent native support for these wireless NICs in Linux |
19 |
unfortunately so I'm forced to use ndiswrapper which worked OK under |
20 |
gcc-3.4.6. |

If I'm mistaken about the above description I'm happy to be informed. |
