SuSE Linux Forums > Driver For Dwl-g510
ok, you have re-installed suse, with kernel sources,etc as before, best thing to do now is take your time, ensure you have all the bits necessary to compile. another thing i spotted, you have saved ndiswrapper to the desktop, not a good idea. save it to a place in your /home directory. i normally have a separate folder for downloads, makes things easier & things compile better. quick way i do it

1 ) right click the tarball & select extract to here
2 ) open the folder that was extracted.
3 ) double click in the address bar then right click & select copy
4 ) open a console & type cd then right click & select paste then press enter. you should now be in the folder.
5 ) type make & press enter. let it do it's thing.
6 ) once completed, type su & press enter. then enter root's password.
7 ) type make install & press enter. it should then install ndiswrapper.
8 ) once it is installed you then type ndiswrapper -i /path /to your/driver & press enter. driver should then be installed.
9 ) type ndiswrapper -l to confirm driver install.
10 ) type ndiswrapper -ma to install module.
11 ) type modprobe ndiswrapper & press enter & your wireless card should be initialised.
12 ) go to yast - network devices - network card & then set up your card.

see if that helps
