[/snip] you need support for at least 8k-stack. for this issue, you get a kernel at linuxant for FC3. Just download
and install with rpm -ivh (not update!!!!!)

this is the installation-wiki: http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/index.php/Installation
and here is the link for your kernel:
http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/index.php/Distributions?PHPSESSID=9e6ddc8d17a6a36d56b0365d1034b389

...have a look at the RedHat/Fedora -Section, there is the Stack-Problem explained and solutions are proposed.
