i have to install a intel pro set wireless.
there are linux drivers for it using ipw3945 and ieee80211;
but there is also ndiswrapper. i have never used ndiswrapper which one is the best? easier?

thank you

Use the Intel Linux drivers, they are much more capable than ndiswrapper. They are a little bit harder to install than ndiswrapper because the kernel hasn't quite caught up to all of their requirements (I'm talking about the 80211mac wireless stack) but the instructions on patching and re-compiling the kernel on their site are good. And once the 80211mac stack becomes the kernel standard (I believe 2.6.24 is when this will happen) then the Intel drivers will be drop-dead easy to install.

I have a ton of respect for the ndsiwrapper developers, but it really should be used only as a last resort for using chipsets developed by moronic, brain-dead companies like Broadcom.
