[Bug 242267] [NEW] The net5416 driver won't work with ndiswrapper on a 64 bits system

[Vivien Taillandier]

Public bug reported:

I just bought the DWA-547 wifi card from D-LINK (PCI).
Since I have a Core 2 Duo, I used the 64 bits version of Ubuntu Hardy.
I had no problem configuring ndiswrapper with Ubuntu (ndisgtk) or compiling it from source (1.53) and having my driver "net5416" being listed present in ndiswrapper (ndiswrapper -l)

However, I never had the wlan0 device.

I tried the driver form the D-Link CD and the latest available, the
result was the same.

After that, I tried to boot with a 32 bits Desktop CD and it worked
pretty well using the ubuntu packages and the latest drivers.
