I have installed my ehome wireless adapter thru NDISWRAPPER 1.54.Everything works out fine but after restarting my pc i need to install the driver again by typing the following commands
depmod -a
modeprobe ndiswrapper
Can anyone suggest me how to make tis driver persistent.Is there any shell script that could run these two commands everytime i logon to ubuntu at the startup itself.

Why not add it yourself through System>Preferences>Sessions?

When you go to System>Preferences>Sessions just click the ADD option. Then type in the command you have above. "depmod -a" You will have to give it a name as well.

Here do the above mentioned to get to Sessions. Then in sessions click add. Give it a name then type this in the command box: depmod -a && modeprobe ndiswrapper

Actually these are the steps i would type into the terminal
su
(password)
depmod -a
modprobe ndiswrapper
so for me to login into the root at the startup i have typed the command as u have said
su && (password) && depmod -a && modprobe ndiswrapper
but it did not work out.. for performing successive commands at the startup should we concatenate them with &&

Yea, for performing commands in line with each other you put an && in between. If you put one & in between it will activate the commands simultaneously.
What happened when you did this?
PS: You dont put your password in the sequence.....that wont work.
