Maybe you should try ndiswrapper 1.2, on my SuSE 10.0 (HP with Broadcom wifi) works fine

Hey I got it to work by using ndiswrapper 1.2

here is what I do after easy installation on ndiswrapper 1.2 (SuSE 10.0)

1. on terminal/console type:
$ iwconfig
// turn up the wireless interface

$ iwlist wlan0 scan
// scan available network

$ iwconfig wlan0 essid <essid>
// choosing essid that available on my network

$ iwconfig wlan mode <mode>
// I choose the mode as managed.

$ ifconfg wlan0 up
// bring up the network.

$ route
// check to see if we're online ^__^

everything work find...

Thank you
