Hey folks,

I'm trying to confirm whether or not the 64 bit Vista (or these questionable 64-bit XP (http://www.opendrivers.com/driver/238895/marvell-topdog-802.11n-g-b-wlan-driver-1.0.4.9-windows-98se-me-2000-xp-xp-x64-free-download.html)) drivers for the Marvell TOPDOG chipset (available in most 802.11 wireless draft N standard devices including my Linksys WUSB300N USB adapter according to some googling I did) will work with ndiswrapper, or if anyone has another possibility to get my WUSB300N wifi working under ubuntu 64.

It's not absolutely necessary that I run 64 bit, but a higher RAM ceiling would definitely help :(

I have the 32 bit drivers, but I was under the impression that those would not be able to be used with a 64 bit OS, regardless of ndiswrapper.

I have 64 bit Ubuntu 7.10 installed and am using the 64 bit Vista/XP drivers for my AR5007EG Atheros wireless card with ndiswrapper so at least in my case it works.

Can't hurt to try.

Have you used any drivers from opendrivers.com? The XP 64 drivers were only on opendrivers.com, and the Marvell Vista 64 drivers for the topdog chipset are no longer on the marvell site
