Hello George,

thank you for your advice. I tried the atheros driver from

http://www.phoenixnetworks.net/atheros.php

The version 3.1.1.50 (recommended) doesn't work. 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
