Ndiswrapper And Ubuntu

[nan0click]

I have done some searching on google and here about using NDIS Wrapper and Ubuntu. I used the tutorial off of the ubuntu install wiki. I get to the "make" part, and it says:

 

make -C driver
make[1]: Entering dierctory `/home/mike/Desktop/ndiswrapper-1.4rc3/driver'
Can't find kernel sources in /lib/modules/2.6.10-5-386/build;
give the path to kernel sources with KSRC=<path> argument to make
make[1]: *** [prereq_check] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/mike/desktop/ndiswrapper-1.4rc3/driver'
make: *** [all] Error 2

 

using sudo doesnt fix anything either.

 

also, in the tutorial, it says to use the command

ln -s /usr/src/linux-<kernel-version> /lib/modules/VERSION/build

but there is no directory called linux-kernel-version (yes i know its numbers, not the literal word) and there is no folder called build in my /lib/modules/VERSION/ directory

 

Thank you for all the help you can offer.

You will want try 1.1 under the 2.6 kernel. A lot of people have been issues with 1.3/1.4 under 2.6 yet under 2.4 it works just fine.

did you install the sources??

 

open up synaptic and search for linux 2.6.12* sources or something like that..
