[arch-general] ndiswrapper problem
Hi! I have a Broadcom 4312 (rev 01). It seems to be, the best method is ndiswrapper using it. However, when I use it, wpa_supplicant can associate with the ap, but dhclient/dhcpcd can't get a dhcpoffer. Using the wl driver, there is no problem. Here is the interesting thing: using sysrescueccd (2.6.27 kernel, 1.53 ndiswrapper ebuild: http://gentoo-portage.com/AJAX/Ebuild/49806/View), I can simply get a dhcpoffer, so there is something with the ndiswrapper of Arch Linux. Any ideas?

It probably has nothing to do with Arch and everything to do with the kernel differences. Report it upstream
hmmm... building ndiswrapper 1.54 vanilla works. On Sun, Feb 15, 2009 at 9:53 PM, Aaron Griffin <aaronmgriffin@gmail.com> wrote:

Hmm.. it looks like, this was a temporary success. I tried with the package from testing, but it's the same... :-/ On Mon, Feb 16, 2009 at 7:23 AM, Tobias Powalowski <t.powa@gmx.de> wrote:
