[SOLVED] ndiswrapper not working after upgrade to Mageia 3

Postby mailedfist » Sep 27th, '13, 00:02

Hi Folks. I'm being a bit lazy and asking the question before investigating much (I'm tired).

Just upgraded a Toshiba Satellite Pro L10 from Mageia 2 to Mageia 3. All has gone well except that the WiFi has disappeared from Network Center. the mga3 version of ndiswrapper is installed but there's no mention of the neti220 ndiswrapper in syslog since the upgrade. Has anyone else had anything similar and, if so, what's the solution please?

Mandrake->Mandriva->Mageia starting in 2003. I really dislike another well-known distro starting with U.

Duh! All that I needed to do was go to Configure Network from the NetApplet and then the Wireless (WiFi) option. ndiswrapper and the driver were still there and after enabling them all is now well.
