Thx for replying so quickly! I tried unistalling (pacman -Rd perl; pacman -S perl). It still failed to create the symbolic link to 5.8.8. The build of ndiswrapper still failed as before. I manually created the link (ln -s ./current ./5.8.8). This created the link. I rebuilt ndiswrapper successfully! I'm now pinging the network through ndiswrapper, but I'm unsure as to the advisability of manually creating the link. Do you foresee problems down the road? Doing (pacman -Syu), I figured, would probably fix anything I might have going. _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
