I just updated to the newest version of the linux kernel, from 2.6.7-1.494.2.2 to 2.6.8-1.521, but now my wireless card wont work. I use ndiswrapper to use my card since i could not find any linux drivers. i think its a ndiswrapper or a modprobe problem and here is why.
Code:
[earobinson@localhost earobinson]$ su -
Password:
[root@localhost root]# ifup wlan0
interface 'wlan0' not found
ndiswrapper device wlan0 does not seem to be present, delaying initialization.
[root@localhost root]# ndiswrapper -l
Installed ndis drivers:
bcmwl5 present
[root@localhost root]# modprobe ndiswrapper
FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found.
[root@localhost root]# ifup wlan0
interface 'wlan0' not found
ndiswrapper device wlan0 does not seem to be present, delaying initialization.
[root@localhost root]#
thanks for all your help, anyone else having this problem,
ps is there a good site to see all kernel changes, i googled it but i want the one for fedora, i just want to know what has been changed in each kernel update.
thanks again
