After copying the configuration and binary files to the corresponding path at /usr/src/sys/modules/if_ndis, i created the driver definition header using ndiscvt(8). Then, i have build and install the driver module without problem: if_ndis.ko is copied to /boot/kernel and kldxref -v seems happy (kldxref: /boot/kernel/if_ndis.ko: 488 REL entries). But, if i can load the NDIS driver wrapper correctly (using kldload ndis), loading the network interface seems more problematic: # kldload if_ndis kldload: can't load if_ndis: No such file or directory Here is the kernel message: # tail -1 /var/log/messages Apr 16 15:05:46 boboche kernel: link_elf: symbol windrv_load undefined I tried this with the two available Windows versions for this wireless network module: win98/2k and winxp... without much success. Any clue or advice to get it loading/working? Thanks. -- -jpeg.
