Cannot find module in apt-get

[elija]

I am attempting to set up my wireless network in a fresh etch install. The
desktop environment is XFCE in case that makes a difference.

This is my sources list

#
# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 r2 _Etch_ - Official i386 xfce-CD Binary-1 20080102-13:53]/ etch contrib main

deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 r2 _Etch_ - Official i386 xfce-CD Binary-1 20080102-13:53]/ etch contrib main

deb Index of /debian etch main contrib non-free
deb-src Index of /debian etch main

deb http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main contrib
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main contrib

This is what I have tried and also shows the error

apt-get install firmware-ipw3945 ipw3945-modules-`uname -r` ipw3945d
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
firmware-ipw3945 is already the newest version.
E: Couldn't find package ipw3945-modules-2.6.18-5-686

When I look at the kernel, it shows this

Linux Aivas 2.6.18-5-686 #1 SMP Mon Dec 24 16:41:07 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux

Am I going to have to set up and install ndiswrapper or can I use a native
driver somehow?

I believe you need to copy the firmware files for the ipw to /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/ and then reboot.

you will only need to copy the .fw files, do a search for ipw3945 and then copy those files.

after you reboot it should add your wireless nic
