im trying with ndiswrapper and im following the tips at this page *ttp://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Installation
my thinkpad use 'w29n51" as driver

[root@localhost ~]# ndiswrapper -l
installed drivers:
w29n51 driver installed (alternate driver: ipw2200)
w39n51 invalid driver!
[root@localhost ~]#

when i test the driver with dmesg


ndiswrapper: no version for "struct_module" found: kernel tainted.
ndiswrapper version 1.27 loaded (preempt=no,smp=yes)
ndiswrapper (load_wrap_driver:118): loadndiswrapper failed (65280); check system log for messages from 'loadndisdriver'

and with iwconfig anything is found

[root@localhost ~]# iwconfig
