Hi, Thanks a lot Roger for your information. But I have some doubts. As I already mentioned, my Fedora is able to detect my wireless card and work fine without WPA-PSK using the driver for Intel pro 2200BG downloaded from the sourceforge.net. Why do then i need the NDISWrapper again for windows driver(linux driver is ok!!!). Is ONLY WPA_supplicant will not do good in this case? Please light on my thoughts.
