Hi All,

>From last two weeks, I am working on this problem. I am working on FC8 with
kernel version 2.6.23.1-42.

I am using Linksys wireless adapter (WUSB54G). I didn't found any linux
drivers for this device. so by using ndiswrappers I installed windows native
drives in linux box. finally adapter got detected.

after words  I try to use this  wpa_supplicant on this adapter.  Hear I am
facing problem

In debugging mode  I am getting so many IOCTL errors. I am not getting,
there errors are from ndiswrapper or wpa_supplicant.

plz help me in this regard.
