You only need to do this once. After that, the driver bits are

I'm trying to get this card going on an old laptop and am using Damn
Small Linux. I didn't do what was necessary to ensure persistence of
that installation of the driver bits, waiting to see whether I could get
the card to work first.
This is an ancient version of ndiswrapper. The current version is
1.40, and has fixes for PCMCIA cards --- I don't think that ersion 1.14
had that. Upgrade and you may have a chance.
Again, DSL imposes limitations on me in terms of versions of software.
One thing that makes this inability to get the wireless card going less
frustrating than it would otherwise have been is that I have got an
Ethernet card that does work with the laptop and DSL (though I've had it
unplugged during this exercise, to avoid possible conflicts).
Thanks again for taking the trouble to try to help.
