Thanks for all this, it has helped me set up the dongle, and never would have got it going otherwise! A complete noob to Ubuntu. Thanks a lot...

    Make life a little easier

    ALWAYS follow these concepts when using ndiswrapper:

    - the driver MUST be a Windows XP driver (unless ndiswrapper has been updated)

    - the driver MUST match your system architecture - 32-bit or 64-bit. You should need the .inf AND the .sys files

    - for Ubuntu users, install the ndisgtk package - it will make your life SO much easier. No more command line ndiswrapper. Ndisgtk is a GUI'd front-end to ndiswrapper. Just select Windows Wireless Drivers to start ndisgtk (after you have installed it), select new, point it to the .inf file and tell it to complete. That's it. You don't need to do all the command line typing.
