make ndiswrapper book at startup


i followed the instructions to get ndiswrapper working here

http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=125627

and it says that you need to make ndiswrapper

Quote:
9. Load module on boot

autoload ndiswrapper module

Code:

#echo "ndiswrapper" >> /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-<version>


substitute your kernel version for <version> . For example 2.6 or 2.4 (just the first 2 digits seperated by a ".") (mine is /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6)

but there is no file /etc/modules.autoload.d/... how would i get this to work in slack 9.1?


ok, i figured out that you need to edit the /etc/modules.conf file, but i just dont know what to put in it... i tried just ndiswrapper and that didnt work... can someone help me out
