Linux 2.6.24 and ndiswrapper 1.51

[Richard Pyne]

I have found that while the ndiwrapper loads with kernel 2.6.24, it does 
not properly initialize.

>From my logs...

ndswrapper with kernel 2.6.23.12:

Feb  2 10:12:41 pluto ndiswrapper version 1.51 loaded (smp=yes, 
preempt=yes)
Feb  2 10:12:41 pluto ndiswrapper: driver bcmwl5 (Broadcom,10/12/2006,

ndiswrapper with kernel 2.6.24:

Feb  2 14:36:45 pluto ndiswrapper version 1.51 loaded (smp=yes, 
preempt=yes)
Feb  2 14:36:45 pluto usbcore: registered new interface driver ndiswrapper


With kernel 2.6.24, ndiswrapper -l shows the driver correctly registered, 
but loading the ndiswrapper module does not load or register the driver.
