ndiswrapper for Debian ====================== This package provides the ndiswrapper source code and binaries that can be used to build modules that work with your custom built linux kernel. The source files are located in /usr/src/ndiswrapper.tar.bz2; unpacking that file in /usr/src will produce a build tree in /usr/src/modules/ndiswrapper/ (The tar file can also be unpacked elsewhere). Building ndiswrapper kernel modules with module-assistant ========================================================= Please install the module-assistant package and issue the following commands:- $ m-a prepare $ m-a a-i ndiswrapper The above commands will prepare, compile, package and install a set of ndiswrapper modules for your kernel. m-a is short for module-assistant, and a-i is short for auto-install. Please see the module-assistant documentation for further details. Building ndiswrapper kernel modules (kernel-package) ==================================================== If necessary, prepare the kernel source tree for the target kernel. If you are using a self compiled kernel than you have an easy task! $ cd /usr/src $ tar jxvf ndiswrapper.tar.bz2 $ cd linux-$KVERS $ make-kpkg --added-modules ndiswrapper modules Where $KVERS is the exact version string of the kernel you want to build ndiswrapper for. A ndiswrapper-modules package will be built against the kernel source version specified. Look at the output for where the ndiswrapper-modules package is located. Then use dpkg to install the module package by hand, eg:- $ dpkg -i /usr/src/ndiswrapper-modules-$KVERS.deb
