Ndiskwrapper on the Compaq R4000 problems

[uvicbigcanuck]

Hi. So I tried install ndiswrapper on my machine,
Compaq R4000
AMD 64 3200
Broadcom wireless card
and it wouldn't go past the make command. Any Ideas? heres what I did

Another way of getting ndiswrapper instead of building it is, add Livna repository to /etc/yum.repo.d with


rpm -ivh http://ftp.freshrpms.net/pub/freshrpms/fedora/linux/5/freshrpms-release/freshrpms-release-1.1-1.fc.noarch.rpm



edit /etc/yum.repo.d/livna.repo and change enabled=1 to enabled=0
then


yum --enablerepo=livna install ndiswrapper kmod-ndiswrapper

I'm pretty new to linux how do I
edit /etc/yum.repo.d/livna.repo and change enabled=1 to enabled=0 ??

[uvicbigcanuck]
