Linux Fedora Core 6 installing ndiswrapper.

Please may someone help me get it too install and work because i am desperate to use Linux not M$ because I can not use my Belkin f5d7050. I have done the commands 'make' and 'make install', but I do not know what to do after this. If you can help it would be a great help. Also I get the disable the 4stac kernel or something like that. Sorry i can not remember it properly because I am dual booting with XP due too no internet on the more advanced OS . Thank you in advance

Welcome to the forums!

I have no experience with ndiswrapper so can't offer any specific help, but check this HowTo for instructions that might help you get it going.

Let us know how it goes.

Never mind about my last post that was my usb soundcard and removed it and it sorted out that problem. When I type 'ndiswrapper -l' it says the driver is installed and the device which is installed but when i put iwconfig this comes up :

[root@localhost ~]# iwconfig

lo no wireless extensions.


eth0 no wireless extensions.


sit0 no wireless extensions.



[root@localhost ~]# modprobe ndiswrapper
[root@localhost ~]#

The driver which is installed is: BLKWGU.inf
The device name is '050D:705C'
