Ndiswrapper drivers howto

Some drivers which are not released for linux will require Ndiswrapper to function. Bcm43xx driver may have been limited to 11Mbs using Ndiswrapper increases the speed.

You will need to install the RPM Fusion.

  • Install Ndiswrapper
su -c 'yum -y install kmod-ndiswrapper' 
  • Make a directory to hold your driver.
su -c 'mkdir /ndiswrapper_drivers' 
  • Log in as root
su --login 
  • Now you will either need to get the drivers from your windows driver disk or download the drivers needed for your network card from the Ndiswrapper Wiki
Go there...

In my Fedora 14 System. Running this command su -c 'yum -y install kmod-ndiswrapper' shows no such app available, with RPM Rusion Free and Non-Free Repos installed. I can't find a way to make this work. Can You?
