I'm trying to install ndiswrappers in FC4. I followed the installation
manual in their site, but specifically here is what I did.

First I extracted kernel-devel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4.i686.rpm.
Then I did "rpm -Uvh kernel-devel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4.i686.rpm".


*single CPU kernel-devel package*


It said that it needs hardlink. I extracted hardlink (from cd 1 I
think). Then I did "rpm -Uvh hardlink-1.0-1.13.i386.rpm". This
installed, then the kernel installed. Yay!
Next I attemted to install gcc using same method as last two packages
but this didn't work too well (had too many dependencies), so I then
decided to "system-config-packages" the development-tools installed
fine. Thinking that I didn't have openssl-devel I tried to uncompress it
from a cd (#1 I think) and then tried to install it but told me that it
already is installed. Then I downloaded ndiswrappers-1.2 from their site.
Did:
then I linked ln
-s /usr/src/kernels/2.6.11-1.1369_FC4-i686/ /lib/modules/2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp/build


You linked the kernel includes for the single CPU / non-smp kernel into
the SMP kernel modules directory. That can't lead to something useful!


[root@WarpPower ndiswrapper-1.2]# modprobe ndiswrapper
FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper
(/lib/modules/2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp/misc/ndiswrapper.ko): Invalid module


*smp kernel!*

I've stripped out all kernel packages except SMP. When I compile, I get a working ndiswrapper now. But as soon as I type


   iwconfig wlan0 essid mynetworkid

a huge stack trace happens and the system locks up, requiring a power cycle.

Do you think this is a 4K stack vs. 16K stack issue?
