To install this device in ubuntu 9.04 U have to follow the following steps....
1:
First Install the ndiswrapper driver. To know how to install see this.
2:
Now download the windows driver from Here.

4:
Now write the following commands in terminal: (except "" marks)

Thanks for these intructions, they worked perfectly... At least until I rebooted.... I found that I had to do one last thing... which is to type " sudo ndiswrapper -m " into the console to get it to load.
ReplyDeleteSince then I have managed to screw it up, since ubuntu doesnt load wifi anymore, but thanks for your instructions though
when I said that command was to get it to load, I mistyped... I meant to say "to get it to load on startup"
ReplyDeleteI'll post one more time...
ReplyDeleteApparently the resolution to the card not detecting on startup even though it worked the first time is to run this in the console..
$ sudo modprobe -r ndiswrapper
$ sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
It will stop and start the ndiswrapper. Ill figure out a way to put this in a startup script I guess :)
Thanks for sharing... Nice post.
ReplyDeleteVery good
