The ndiswrapper 0.12 complains about the 4K stack size, where 0.11 doesn't. I've got linksys wpc54g working under 0.11 for weeks without any problem. Try 0.11 if you don't want a new kernel. A bit extra information, remember to recompile and install ndiswrapper each time you upgrade your kernel. :) Good luck -- Joe -- Money can't buy everything. Sometimes money can't even buy a gun...
