NDISWrapper installed - hardware present, but not network device found

[Steve-01370]

I'm running 8.04 on a Dell Inspiron 1721 laptop. It runs flawlessly except for the wireless networking. This is the internal Dell wireless card. I'm using the Windows driver (as per the inf file). NDISWrapper says the hardware is present, but no networks or devices show up. The onboard wired NIC is present and works, FWIW. Luckily, this laptop has two hard drives, so I have Windoze and Kubuntu installed.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Steve
