May I ask a few questions?

 

What version of ndiswrapper did you install? Was it an rpm, or by source?

 

What Windows drivers did you use, Windows 2000 or XP? Did you get the message;

 

Driver installed; hardware present

 

...when doing ndiswrapper -l?

 

Do you have the kernel source package installed on Mandriva and follow the directions on the ndiswrapper wiki page?

 

What model USB device is this?

 

What I am trying to get at, is the USB device listed as supported with ndiswrapper?

 

For example, for the F5D7050, the wiki states;

 

Quote:
Card: Belkin F5D7050 (USB 2.0 Adaptor 802.11g 54Mbps)

Chipset: RT2500

usbid: 050d:7050

Driver: Install the drivers for windows included in the box and fetch the .inf files from the installation directory.

Other: Works fine. When entering in resume mode, freeze the system.
