[denis]

Hi,

In order to install the driver of my netgear wg 511 wifi card, I have to rune the command in subject.

the procedure :
#After download http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...group_id=93482
tar xvfz ndiswrapper-1.16.tar.gz
cd ndiswrapper-1.16/
fakeroot debian/rules binary-modules
fakeroot debian/rules binary-utils


And I get this answer :
/usr/bin/fakeroot: line 150: debian/rules: Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type

Can some one tell me what should i do ? Thx.

Translated from français:
"No file or repertory of this type"

Sounds like fakeroot might be damaged/outdated. Are you running the latest version?

Hello,

I think yes : I uninstalled and purged it before reinstalling but the problem remain.

Is there any importance of where the directory /ndiswraper is ?

PS : Sorry for french part I forgot to pay attention on it

The default Ubuntu kernel already provides the modules required for ndiswrapper. All you need to do is to install the (K)Ubuntu package "ndiswrapper-utils". You shouldn't have to compile anything.

Yes you are wright, however if I do not compile the module and utils for each version of my kernel, when I plug the card I have, from ndiswrapper -l a message saying driver and hw present, but nothing happen to the card : not switched on, no scan of any network,... well nothing. don't know why.
