| AmirB | I can't manage to blacklist bcm43xx when using ndiswrapper I added "blacklist bcm43xx" to modprobe.d/blacklist but when I type "ndiswrapper -l" it still tells me that there is an alternate driver called bcm43xx and it interferes because I have to type "sudo dhclient eth1" everytime I log in just to get it to work! (eth1 is the interface ndiswrapper assigns the card to) what do I do to make permanent? |
