Bug Description
My ubuntu version is 9.10 , the core version is 2.6.31 .
My wireless .inf file under vista is net8192se.inf .
I installed the ndiswrapper util 1.9
-------
the result of the "ndiswrapper -l " ,it's
net8192se : driver installed
device (10EC:8172) present
the result of the commandline "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper", it's
nothing happens.
I've added the "ndiswrapper" at the end of /etc/modules
I've renamed the file of ndiswrapper under /etc/modprobe.d/ to ndiswrapper.conf , in this file ,it's already written "alias wlan0 ndiswrapper "
the result of the commandline "iwconfig", it's
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
pan0 no wireless extensions.
So it means the computer cannot find my wireless card ,right ?
So what can I do next ? Thanks!

This bug appears to relate to using ndiswrapper to make this card work, so I won't flag this as a duplicate straight away. However now in lucid-proposed there is a fix for bug #567016 which addresses the native Linux driver by using the vendor's latest driver version.
