[ubuntu] Netgear usb wireless adapter help.

linux-howto

http://ubuntuforums.org – I purchased a netgear wireless usb adapter. I used the package manner to download ndiswrapper. Then since the first step is supposed to be to run the CD, I put it in but it wont run. Even if I manually click on autorun.exe I just get this error message Archive: /media/cdrom0/Autorun.exe [/media/cdrom0/Autorun.exe] End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on the last disk(s) of this archive. note: /media/cdrom0/Autorun.exe may be a plain executable, not an archive zipinfo: cannot find zipfile directory in one of /media/cdrom0/Autorun.exe or /media/cdrom0/Autorun.exe.zip, and cannot find /media/cdrom0/Autorun.exe.ZIP, period. What does that even mean? What do I do now? (HowTos)
