Angry How can i change my dirver for my wifi card? ...ndiswrapper
Hi, So I've been using Fedora 10 for a month now, and just yesterday I installed Vista out of my frustration with the network compatibility issues with my laptop.

Currently, I have dual boot (Vista and F10).

The problem is, F10 already has a driver for my network card, but it's not really the proper one (F10 has installed RTL8187, whereas the one I need installed is RTL8187B)

I have the files necessary for installing the driver via ndiswrapper (.inf and .sys files) but I can't get ndiswrapper to compile!

Here's what I've done:

1. Extracted the downloaded ndiswrapper tar
2. CD into the extracted directory
3. I run 'make install', and get the following error:

Code:

I can't even get the darn thing to compile, and I've searched all over online for an answer and can't find one that uses enough laymen terms for me =( I'm a newbie, can anyone help me out before I completely revert back to Vista?? =(

Thanks

Welcome to the forums!

I'm pretty sure the RTL8187 covers the RTL8187B, as well:

On Vista (using the driver that came on the factory CD), my internet connection is superb, and I get connection speeds that I would get if I was connected via ethernet cable.

On the other hand, using F10 (preinstalled driver), my internet connection is very very weak, and sometimes my connection even drops. I get horrible connection speeds (40X slower than Vista).

For this reason, I wanted to use the factory CD instead of the preinstalled driver.

FYI: You can't use vista drivers with ndiswrapper, they have to be XP drivers.

If you feel that you really need to install ndiswrapper, just enable the rpmfusion repository and install it from that.

RPM Fusion - RPM Fusion

If they don't have a kernel module that matches your kernel, install one of their kernels that has a matching ndiswrapper module. There is also the ATrpms repository.
