I have an internal wireless PCI card from Linkskey. It's a Marvell Libertas chipset. Ndiswrapper is installed, the driver is installed, and the card can see the available wireless networks. However, it cannot connect. This is a dual-boot machine and the card works under Windows, and I used the same driver for ndiswrapper. On top of that, this card worked in 8.04.

I have not compiled ndiswrapper from source. I have installed and removed the ndiswrapper driver using commandline and ndisgtk. ndisgtk cannot find a network configuration tool, but installs the driver. Any help in getting this thing to connect would be greatly appreciated.
