Hi,
I have been trying to install my wireless pcmcia card onto fedora core 6. to do this i have been trying to use ndiswrapper http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net but with no luck. i am using ndiswrapper-1.34 and i keep running into some problems. I can successfully complete the make distclean, make and make install (root) commands and they work without a problem. It is only when i try to enter the command ndiswrapper -i filename.inf (replacing filename.inf with the .inf file of my pc card) i get the following error QUOTE [root@james-laptop ndiswrapper-1.34rc2]# ndiswrapper -i WG511v2.INF bash: ndiswrapper: command not found i have copied the files to my home directroy (/home/james/ndiswrapper-1.34) and have copied the .inf and .sys files there too. But still i keep getting this error! does anyone know whats happening to cause this error? Thanks This post has been edited by Jimmy89: Jan 10 2007, 02:47 AM |

You must specify that what you want is in the current location you are at:
CODE [root@james-laptop ndiswrapper-1.34rc2]# ./ndiswrapper -i WG511v2.INF That's it. If you want ndiswrapper to be accessible whenever you type it, then create a link to it inside the /usr/bin location, or where you see fit. Cheers, MC |

Cheers, MC i have tried this code but now i get a different error. it now says no such file or directory. CODE [root@james-laptop ndiswrapper-1.34rc2]# ./ndiswrapper -i Wg511v2.INF bash: ./ndiswrapper: No such file or directory thanks! This post has been edited by Jimmy89: Jan 11 2007, 02:28 AM |

QUOTE ./ndiswrapper -i Wg511v2.INF I would do the following, just in order to verify that there is no mistyping. 1) ls ./ndiswrapper this should give no error, just showing the ndiswrapper file name. 2) ls ./Wg511v2.INF This should also give no error, just listing the .INF filename. Then, ./ndiswrapper -i ./Wg511v2.INF I would say that the second error type was due to the missing ./ in front of Wg511v2. Tell us if this works now. |
