Trouble installing DWL-G510 wireless card
I'm running a fresh install of Fedora Core 5, and I'm having trouble installing the driver for my wireless card. I installed ndiswrapper 1.10 as well as madwifi 0.0.0.20060317, and I'm using the command /usr/sbin/ndiswrapper -i /usr/local/dwlg510/mrv8k51.inf to install the WinXP driver, but I receive an error:

When I do /usr/sbin/ndiswrapper -l, it says that the driver is installed and the hardware is found, but it doesn't show up when I configure the Network.

I removed the driver and tried the Win98 and Win2K drivers, but it still isn't working. Here's the ndiswrapper section of the dmesg output:
