ndiswrapper error

(1/1)

jls:
Hi ndiswrapper needs modprobe, but not the one from busybox:

--- Code: ---jls@box:~/mrv$ sudo ndiswrapper -l
lspci: Unable to load libkmod resources: error -12
modprobe: opzione non valida -- "c"
BusyBox v1.20.2 (2014-12-04 11:32:04 UTC) multi-call binary.

Usage: modprobe [-alrqvsDb] MODULE [symbol=value]...

-a Load multiple MODULEs
-l List (MODULE is a pattern)
-r Remove MODULE (stacks) or do autoclean
-q Quiet
-v Verbose
-s Log to syslog
-D Show dependencies
-b Apply blacklist to module names too

--- End code ---
after removing bb modprobe and using the one from the kmod package I got:

--- Code: ---jls@box:~/mrv$ sudo ndiswrapper -i mrv8335.inf
installing mrv8335 ...
jls@box:~/mrv$ sudo ndiswrapper -m

jls@box:~/mrv$ sudo modprobe ndiswrapper

Jason W:
I have used ndiswrapper, and I "modprobe ndiswrapper" before I issue the ndiswrapper command.  That error you see from "sudo ndiswrapper -l" is then harmless.  Because of Tinycore's /lib/modules directory contents, the full version of modprobe does not work and /sbin/modprobe is a symlink to Busybox in base so it does not get overwritten when the kmod package is installed. 

jls:
Hi
tryied to first the modprobe command, but it doesn't work.

--- Code: ---jls@box:~/mrv$ sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
jls@box:~/mrv$ sudo ndiswrapper -i mrv8335.inf
driver mrv8335 is already installed
jls@box:~/mrv$ sudo ndiswrapper -m
