Hi everyone! :-)
I have a problem with making a wireless USB dongle work under CentOS 6. The dongle is known to not work natively under Linux and last time I used it (cca 3 years ago) I managed to get it working using ndiswrapper.
This time I was hoping to make it work again in the same way. But the "yum install kmod-ndiswrapper" reports the following (among other regular stuff):
Error: Package: kmod-ndiswrapper-1.56-1.el6.elrepo.i686 (elrepo) Requires: kernel(per_cpu__kstat) = 0xb3994c7a Installed: kernel-2.6.32-220.2.1.el6.i686 (@updates) kernel(per_cpu__kstat) = 0x0954e8e2 Installed: kernel-2.6.32-220.4.2.el6.i686 (@updates) kernel(per_cpu__kstat) = 0x0954e8e2 Installed: kernel-2.6.32-220.7.1.el6.i686 (@updates) kernel(per_cpu__kstat) = 0x0954e8e2 Available: kernel-2.6.32-220.el6.i686 (base) kernel(per_cpu__kstat) = 0x0954e8e2 Available: kernel-2.6.32-220.4.1.el6.i686 (updates) kernel(per_cpu__kstat) = 0x0954e8e2 Available: kernel-debug-2.6.32-220.el6.i686 (base) kernel(per_cpu__kstat) = 0x0954e8e2 Available: kernel-debug-2.6.32-220.2.1.el6.i686 (updates) kernel(per_cpu__kstat) = 0x0954e8e2 Available: kernel-debug-2.6.32-220.4.1.el6.i686 (updates) kernel(per_cpu__kstat) = 0x0954e8e2 Available: kernel-debug-2.6.32-220.4.2.el6.i686 (updates) kernel(per_cpu__kstat) = 0x0954e8e2 Available: kernel-debug-2.6.32-220.7.1.el6.i686 (updates) kernel(per_cpu__kstat) = 0x0954e8e2
And yum refuses to install it. I've never seen this kind of report by yum. What's going on here? And more importantly, how do I install kmod-ndiswrapper on my up-to-date CentOS 6.2?
Best, :-) Marko
