I'm running Fedora 12 LXDE spin on a netbook (Asus EeePC) and have successfully installed a wireless driver using ndiswrapper. The only problem is that every time I reboot, I need to use the "modprobe ndiswrapper" command to load the module.
Is there a way to load the ndiswrapper module during the boot process?
i've patched the source files to be installed on f14 and finally got a succesfull install, ndiswrapper -l comes back with driver installed and presentwhen i run modprobe ndiswrapper i get "FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found" after many hours of google searching and reading various threads i cannont seem to find a solution to this apart from manualy coping the ndiswrapper.ko file but when i use that solution modprobe starts ndiswrapper but there is no wlan0 present in iwconfig.now for some reason even wheni move the ndiswrapper.ko file manually it still is giving me that error. this worked earlier as i mentioned but then i reinstalled ndiswrapper hoping something went wrong but still got the same error so i tried that same fix and i'm still getting that error. i can't figure out what i migt've done differently earlier but i'm not having any luck.

Can someone tell me how to correct the "Invalid module format"? I hope that correcting the "Invalid module format" error, I will not have the "Unknown symbol in module" error.
Note: I am using wlan1 for this module as I previously am online with the wlan0 network.The same error occurs if I use ./wlan0up.
I have a broadcom 4318 chipset for my wireless card, but after an upgrade to lucid my system was acting funny. I did a complete reinstall and all the issues are resolved except the wireless card. I would like to get the b43 module working instead of ndiswrapper. How can i do this right in lucid?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently received a used laptop that I was going to use for my kids, a Compaq Presario 2100. Everything went fine on the install, however I could not get the WiFi to work. The internal card, a Broadcom BCM4306, was attempting to use the b43legacy drivers, which I understand to be the native driver for this card, but would get all sorts of strange errors in 'dmesg', and would never get a solid connection.
After fiddling with this for 2 days, and reading countless troubleshooting guides, I finally gave up and decided to get it working with ndiswrapper. Everything worked perfect, except I can only get it to work if I first load b43legacy, then load ndiswrapper, then unload b43legacy. If I blacklist b43legacy, and just load ndiswrapper, iwconfig does not report a wlan0.
I ran across this posting, and decided to try this, but it also did not work. Plus, with this file in place, any attempt to use modprobe would complain about every line of that file.
I am trying to set up wireless on my desktop. It has no internet whatsoever, I could hook up ethernet but I would have to transfer the whole computer across the house. I installed ndiswrapper from the installation CD. I also installed NDISGTK which is some GUI with the ndiswrapper. I clicked Install New Driver, I am pretty sure I have all the other necessary files along with the mn710.inf, but I get the error:"Module could not be loaded. Error was:FATAL: Could not read '/lib/modules/2.6.35-22-generic/kernel/ubuntu/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko': No such file or directory"After clicking ok, it shows the driver there, but my card is still not working, no lights or anything. Does anyone know what that error is and how I can get it working?
View 1 Replies View RelatedFor a diskfull node (the OS installed in a disk), I can use the 'insmod' command to insert a kernel module into the kernel. And after the reboot, the module is still in the kernel. I have a question here: how, when and which kernel module will be loaded in the boot up process for a diskfull node?And for the diskless node, can I use the chroot or some other ways to install the kernel modules into ramdisk, so that kernel module can work when the diskless node boot up? I think it needs certain mechanism to load the kernel like the boot up of diskfull node.

I have tried appending the following to /etc/modprobe.d/dist-alsa.conf code...
Using tips provided in the "Sticky" posts, I have identified my wireless device -- BCM4322 -- and installed the necessary firmware and drivers. The device appears in Network Manager until system reboot, at which time the "ssd" driver module is loaded instead. After each boot I must execute the following commands to remove ssd and load the Broadcom driver:
rmmod ssb
modprobe lib80211
modprobe wl
The Broadcom README file provides directions to load the correct module automatically, but the commands appear to be incompatible with openSUSE 11.4. I'm happy to provide additional detail if needed
Ok, I just upgraded from Slackware 13.0 to Slackware-current and now when I run modprobe ndiswrapper I get the following error.FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found.Im not sure what happened on this. I did a search in google and couldn't find anything useful any help would be appreciated.

Above adapter can be installed on v10.2 and 11.3 using ndiswrapper:-
1. Copy the 3 driver files from Windows:- like netwpn111.inf, WPN111.sys & ar5523.bin.
(Be carfeul about the exact names, because they have changed over time).
2. sudo ndiswrapper -i netwpn111.inf
3. sudo ndiswrapper -m
4. sudo modprobe ndiswrapper (the adapter should light up at this point and networks will be detected shortly after - see network manager). (Be careful of paths here - e.g. I had to use /sbin/modprobe - so 'whereis' may be necessary to find these commands).
2nd When I reboot, I need to run the modprobe command again. How do I make the module load automatically on boot? Also (and this is minor), can I bypass the KWallet, keyring thing? it seems silly to enter a password for the keyring and then click another password dialog, when I can just as easily enter the password for the network itself.
I installed ndiswrapper and tried adding a driver. Error: module ndiswrapper not found.So I recompiled my kernel, upgrading to 2.6.33.4 (no, I can't see the logical connection either) After a week, I got the new kernel working ( in the interim I reinstalled debian- it didn't survive my first kernel attempt. don't ask), and reinstalled ndiswrapper. Same problem. So I had a stoke of genius: download the source package!! So I did. Lo and behold, a new directory appeared in /usr/src/ : modules. I took a moment to admire my work, then I jumped in.I 'ls'ed to see what was going on, and found a Makefile. so I typed 'make'. First error: kernel source not found. So I entered the Makefile, found the(clearly marked)variable,and changed it to /usr/src/linux-2.6.33.4 , exited, and redid 'make' Second error: no wireless support in kernel. So I went to src/linux-2.6.33.4 and did a make menuconfig- loaded my current, threw in wireless, and exited.

I'm trying to configure ndiswrapper but when I run
Code:
modprobe ndiswrapper
it says
Code:
FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found.
I know it needs usbcore so I run
Code:
modinfo usbcore
modinfo: could not find module usbcore
So How should I get usbcore working?
I updated to the latest kernel from Suse 11.2 repo. My wireless device won't load firmwares, ndiswrapper won't be a module anymore etc. :

linux-kqzq:/home/olivier/T l chargement/fwextract3 # find /usr -name ndiswrapper

I have a WS- something or other by gigabyte, it has the "ralink rt2860" chipset according to lspci.
It works well the only problem is in kismet or airodump-ng the power always shows as 0.
In the kismet.conf i had to set the source to rt2500, it does not seem to like rt2860 or rt2x00.
In airodump-ng it always says "chipset: ralink 2560pci" and "driver:rt2500"
Is there any way i can use the rt2x00 drivers, would they allow for more things ?
Whats funny is that network manager can see the signal strenght of all the sources.
Ndiswrapper works great, but everytime I restart my computer I have to do:

I had been having problems with my Asus wireless card connecting to my router. Turns out, using ndiswrapper and the XP driver solved the issue. Based on my title of the thread, the driver worked, I turned off computer at night, next day, I can't seem to start the wireless driver again. How would I go about doing this? I am running Ubuntu 10.04, Asus PCE N13 wireless card.

The problem: I am a poor man who until today was running WinXP on AMD64 using an old usb wireless wusb11v4 adapter (32 bit drivers). I have recently installed the Ubuntu 9.10 AMD64 release. But I cannot use ndiswrapper to load my 32 bit wusb11v4 driver because of the 64 bit os vs the 32 bit driver. I can hardly buy a new wireless adapter. But I do not see an AMD32 bit release.

I've installed openSuse 11.4 server-mode (text only) on my desktop, and I'm trying to configure IceWM so i'll eventually have it set up so it always boots into text only mode, but I could be able to quickly start icewm via the command line.using Yast, I installed the Xorg server, and icewm.when I type X, the screen goes black and it just doesn't seem to do anythingI found if I hit ctrl+alt+f1 it kinda puts me back into text only mode, but I can't put in commands anymore. The last thing it says on the screen is:
Failed to load module "fglrx" (module does not exist, 0)
I've goggled that error message and the discussions that popped up around it made no sense to me at all. I've never configured X from scratch before, can someone point me towards a tutorial or something?

I've been unable to boot into x using the real-time kernel from CCRMA at home. I get the error "Failed to load module "nvidia" (module-specific error,0) no drivers available. I'm using the driver from Nvidia. I know that this is not an official Fedora kernel and I should be bothering CCRMA about this, but in the mean time could I edit the entry in grub.conf so that it will use the Nouveau driver for that kernel only? That way I could "dual-boot", and just use the rt kernel when I want to use audio software and don't need 3d graphics.

This morning I came into my office and turned my computer on, per usual, but found that after about 10 minutes of waiting, I was still only getting the blinking cursor of waiting.
Since Ctr-Alt-Del did nothing, I held the power button down on the computer, and started again. This time I entered GRUB and chose the recovery mode, hoping for a fix disc option or some such.
However, what I was faced with was an ATA error that pointed to hard drive errors. (I can't remember what the exact error was now) So I pulled out my 10.10 install cd and booted into that.
I ran the fsck command until it returned no more errors, and rebooted. I waited for the login screen to come up, and was dismayed when it did - only command line style.
So I logged in and ran startx hoping to at least get something to show up on my screen, when it failed and gave me these errors code...
I was disappointed.

I'm fairly new to Debian, but during the past I've used Mandrake, Slackware and Ubuntu. Few months ago I've migrated from Ubuntu to Debian - I like it a lot but there is one thing which keeps bugging me.Sometimes - one of the few boots - nvidia module won't load and GDM won't start. During the "bad" boot system freezes for a while after the message "PME# disabled" and gives the message about nvidia GPU not supported. Because of that GDM fails to start.Below are the boot logs (without the leading time for easy diff comparison) - the "bad log" when nvidia fails to load and the "good log" when everything is OK. Any help?
