Which wireless card Please also attach "dmesg" output after the segmentation fault. The wireless card is an Intel Truemobile 1300, as installed on a Dell
Inspiron 8600.
lspci -v reports the following information
02:03.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM94306 802.11g (rev 02)
Subsystem: Dell Computer Corporation TrueMobile 1300 WLAN
Mini-PCI Card
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 32, IRQ 7
Memory at faff6000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable)
Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2
The driver is ndiswrapper-0.7
Unfortunately I cannot attach dmesg information as the system becomes
unresponsive after seg faulting.
Andrew.
