I am running:
Running Slackware 10.1 kernel 2.4.29
P4 3.2 Ghz - Dell 400SC
Using a Linksys 54G PCI card(driver pack 1.3 - version on the sys is 3.30.15.0)
The access point is a Linksys G Router. It is set to channel 11 and using 64bit WEP.
I've tried ndiswrapper 1.1 as well as the 1.2 RC1.
I am dual booting with XP and wireless card is working there.
Everything compiles, the driver loads fine, but the scan never finds the access point.
Any ideas????? Am I missing a step?

Here is some config info. Lots of stuff here. If needed I can add the /etc/ndiswrapper/<w_adapter>/<conf file>.
