In FC5, they've a new version of the driver in the latest kernels now, 
and we are supposed to be able to make it work with the help of this 
bcm43xx-fwcutter utility, so there are apparently no new 
kmod-ndiswrapper modules for the newer kernels being made.  Hasn't been 
one since 2133 TBE.

I followed the procedure thats supposed to make it work, but all I got 
for my trouble was a lockup, complete and total, and it cost me several 
hours and a boot to the ubuntu live cd to effect a transfer back to an 
external radio via an ethernet cable.   I keep waiting, and running 
yumex 2-3x a day, hoping we'll get a new kmod-ntfs for the last 2 
kernels, but as of this morning, zip, nada, nothing.
