Ndiswrapper requires 8 kb stack, ndiswrapper version 1.25 works fine with fc6. Just download any fc6 kernel source rpm and install it. Change the option to 8kb.

Any chance you have something that would work for another chipset? I have one of the Belkin AGN100 PCMCIA cards and I have been unable to get it working as of yet. I have almost decided that I will have to recompile the kernel, but even attempts to do that have led me to nothing but frustration with the FC6 distro.

Any assistance would be appreciated!

We are installing a module for wirelss card for FC6.
Wirelesscard specification:
“D-Link DWL-G510 AirPlus G Wireless PCI”

When i say make it gives following error.

make -C /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen/build SUBDIRS=/opt/RT61_Linux_STA_Drv1.0.4.0/Module modules
make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2798.fc6xen/build: Not a directory. Stop.
make: *** [all] Error 2

I am following the procedure you have said.
I have installed kernel devel package.
You have said to comment a #include file.
In rt_config.h file there are many include files. Which include file we have to comment-out?

Thanks in advance,
jaya.

Hi Kulbir,

First of all, thanks for the information. I was able to follow the whole procedure and under System>administration>Network in the Network Configuration under Hardware I see rt2500 Wireless wlan0 configured but I do not find wlan0 under devices to select and activate. Please suggest my kernel is linux-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6.i686.

Thanks again
Pooja Shrivastava

@Pooja
all i can say is either try rebuilding the drivers or upgrade to a new kernel-2.6.19-1.2911.6.5.fc6.i686. Sometime it gives some problems, but may work some other some …
