Please note: Not all WIndows XP Drivers work with ndiswrapper. Take a look at http://cmb.phys.cwru.edu/kisner/linux/compaq-r3000/ who has a gzipped tarball with the drivers he got to work. �I believe his are the drivers that made my Compaq 3120 start working on wireless. The ones that came with the notebook did not work! Paul
