I need to install ndiswrapper but I can't find it

I'm trying to setup a wireless network using ndiswrapper, but it says that ndiswrapper needs to be installed, so I press ok then it says "Mandatory Package ndiswrapper is Missing", so i press ok again and I get back to the beginning. Where do I get ndiswrapper, I've already searched through rpmdrake.

You need to visit http://easyuprmi.zarb.org first and setup all the software sources. Once you've done that you'll be able to install ndiswrapper using urpmi or rpmdrake. If you get it from the sourceforge project page you'll have to build it from source manually and you won't get updates for it from Mandriva etc.
