    sry another wireless driver thread.

    ok i have a Dell Inspiron E1705 laptop. with linux 10.1. installed ndiswrapper installed driver "which i got directly from my windows drivers in windows" installed perfectly
    ran ndiswrapper -l said driver installed hardware present
    ran ndiswrapper -m
    also when into the config and set ndiswrapper to load on boot.
    everything went smooth but still no light on the wireless.
    still doesnt work. im positive i have the right driver. which is w39n1.inf and i copied the whole folder that has all the .sys files and all on linux also.

    also my wireless card is a Intel pro wireless 3945.arg

    what next ?

    Did you configure the card in Yast?
