In case you're not familiar with it ndiswrapper wraps around a Windows driver that talks to the hardware. It's an interface between the Linux driver stack and the hardware running a Windows driver. There is no apparent native support for these wireless NICs in Linux unfortunately so I'm forced to use ndiswrapper which worked OK under gcc-3.4.6. If I'm mistaken about the above description I'm happy to be informed. Thanks, Mark -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
