Hi - after installing hardy 8.05 i am having alot of problems getting my wireless card to work. it is a wl-138g v2 (broadcom 4318).
I have tried to follow instructions to install ndiswrapper manually, which is fine, but when i try to install by using the "make install" command, i get a message saying various files (eg stdlib.h) are missing. It seems that i don't have any of the kernel header files installed. (i am very new to linux - its a miracle i managed to get this far!)
After looking on the net, i am struggling to find instructions on how to MANUALLY install these files (as i don't have network connectivity yet). I have downloaded a .deb file from a site which i think is what i'm looking for, and have copied over to my linux pc by means of a usb stick, but don't know how to install it!!
Can anyone help?
