Bug Description
Binary package hint: ndiswrapper-common
Hi,
running "ndiswrapper" to generate a a config file for modprobe in /etc/modprobe.d/, I got the following warning (I assume it's not error). Are you aware of that? Is it possible to "make that message disappear" (obviously by using a non-deprecated way to achieve the same, not by removing the message ;-) ).
# ndiswrapper -m
adding "alias wlan0 ndiswrapper" to /etc/modprobe.
*******

* The update-modules command is deprecated and should not be used!

Thanks for your feedback and best regards
Heiko

I always get this message when I use Ndiswrapper.
From the current Ndiswrapper man page: "-m writes an alias for wlan0 (default wireless device) into module configuration file so that ndiswrapper kernel module is loaded automatically when this interface is used"
If there is a new option option which should be use in place of -m then the man page needs correcting.
