I am following this guide:

http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/SetupNdiswrapperHowto

However when I get to the 'make deb' point I now get this error:

I posted this on the ubuntu forums but they seem to be a bit slow to respond..

N/M

I had to rename the readme file to README (odd isn't it?) and then according to another faq I had to change the arch type from i386 to amd64 in the control files, and FINALLY I had to run it with a make -i to skip some minor blocks.

Then using iwconfig I connected and was browsing the internet from ubuntu.
