ndisgtk - graphical frontend for ndiswrapper (installation of Windows 
WiFi drivers)
seem to be legitimate package for Ubuntu 7.10 I'm using right now.

You may try to use manual check first as root:
apt-cache search *ndisgtk*
even though that's using the same sources list. I prefer doing it that 
way. It's very likely that your /etc/apt/sources.list needs additional 
deb sources uncommented or added. Based on

apt-cache showsrc ndisgtk
Package: ndisgtk
Binary: ndisgtk

I think you need to enable:

deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy universe
deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy universe
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy-updates universe
deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy-updates universe

That's simply cut/paste from my file. Adjust for your version of Ubuntu.

make sure you uncomment or add the appropriate repositories to your 
sources.list file (that's where synaptic and apt-get try to search for 
packages).

[Emc-users] Getting Started with the Latest EMC2

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

I have just installed the latest EMC2 with Ubuntu 8.01. To get an Internet 
connection I need to install a Win XP driver for my Wireless NIC using ndisgtk. 
The instructions say to first install this using the Synaptic Package Manager 
and then to run it and locate my driver .inf file.

Problem: Synaptic Package Manager cannot find the ndisgtk package to install it.

Any suggestions
