Comment (by bruno):
(forgot to edit the 'anonymous' in the above post)
Yes, it does seem to work! I'm writing this through wifi0, from the card.
I followed rifkill's advice, then I manually rmmoded ndiswrapper,
modprobed ath_hal, wlan and finally ath_pci.
Then I opened Wireless Assistant, scanned, logged in, just the same as
with ndiswrapper.
Notebook is Acer Aspire 5570z.
Now I can dump ndiswrapper! Very happy!
Here's some output:
