Automatic command line inputs at startup


I recently got my ndiswrapper to work with my network card, but it has a problem that I have found a work-around for. I just need help making the work-around easier.
When I boot up, my network card does not work. I have to do the following commands:
Code:
modprobe -r acx
modprobe -r ndiswrapper
modprobe ndiswrapper
iwlist wlan0 scan
all that has to be run as root (or with the su - command)
Is there a way top make all that happen when the computer boots or with the click of an icon?

The easy (many would argue not the best) way would be to put it in /etc/rc.local
