Getting belkin wireless card to work with ndiswrapper (was: Re: ndiswrapper install problem)

[Chris Norman]

I have a question reguarding the ndiswrapper, I have a belkin wireless card 
which doesn't work with Fedora, how would i get ndiswrapper to run the 
windows drivers? I believe that's what ndiswrapper does, although I didn't 
understand what I was reading on the net.

Cheers.
