I have a Gateway laptop that has a topdog
wireless chip, and have sucessfully got wireless
to work.
However, for some reason, the wireless device
does not start during bootup, ntp fails to synchronize
as a clue.
However, once up, I can log in as a user, I have to
open a gnome terminal and issue the following
commands:
# depmod -a
# modprobe ndiswrapper
What I'd like to ask, is this normally how ndiswrapper
works? Is it possible to get ndiswrapper to start
as it boots? I have saved wireless connection into
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts but this does not seem
to work because ndiswrapper is not activated first?
Any advice?
Hi,
a quick fix would be to force the module to be always loaded on startup.
You could so add a script named ndiswrapper.modules for example
in /etc/sysconfig/modules/ and containing a simple "modprobe
ndiswrapper".
