I've tried also the driver for the CM-9 series but it doesn't work neither. The module if_ndis loads in every case nicely in the kernel (no page fault here), but the card doesn't show up in the output of dmesg. So I stick with my opinion that I tried the right driver (see my 1st E-mail), but the the ndis module doesn't implement enough API to support it (I bought my Thinkpad very recently). Kind regards, Mauro
