How to insert at startup in FC 9?
 
Hi All,

I am using ndiswrapper to use wireless on my laptop running FC9. Each time I login I need to load the module manually. Could you tell me which file should I edit so that module can get inserted at start up automatically.

Thanks a lot.

Isn't it possible at all?

You could put an entry in rc.local, but there must be a more standard way for ndiswrapper

you could also make a script and put it in ~/.kde/Autostart/ if youre using kde.

did you do
ndiswrapper -m ?

No I didnt do ndiswrapper -m.
I think I should try with that.

I tried ndiswrapper -m as well. It created a file named ndiswrapper in /etc/modprobe.d/.
But still module is not getting inserted automatically at start up. :(

ndiswrapper -m
modprobe ndiswrapper
