64 Bit ndiswrapper finally here

[anand78]

I tried playing with the ndiswrapper 1.0rc3 which compiled fine on my zv5000. However after following these steps I was stuck.

1. untar the driver
2. do a make( complained about 4K stacks just ignore)
3. make install ( Went fine complained about spinlock debugging)
4./usr/sbin/ ndiswrapper -i <driver.inf> ( OK)
5. /sbin/modprobe ndiswrapper ( my computer Hangs up)

I tried upgrading to 2.6.10 kernel , it solved the hang problem but gave me kernel panic when I put initializing the ndiswrapper in the init scripts.

I am posting this on my CentOS 4 beta x86_64 with wireless working and NVidia driver working too. Just in case someone is interested here is my Kernel Config that I used to get the system to work.

My Kernel Config is in the next post for R3000z Laptop
