Hi, all. I'm running Ubuntu 8.04, and trying to install the Windows wifi driver for my onboard wifi, as there is no Linux driver for it. I've tried using NDISWrapper, but as far as I can tell, the necessary file doesn't exist. So, I'm trying to install the Windows driver directly, using Wine. However, when I try to run the .exe file, I get the following error message (I had to copy from a screen shot, so there may be typos): Code: Unable to load C:\windows\temp\{164E09A4-735A-11DD-1194-001FC60B674E}\{295941F1-484E-4C23-B43C-7EFDC3E6DF43}\InstallHelper.dll. Is there any way to put an appropriate file in place, or to get around this problem?

Oh, right. [Rolling Eyes] Thanks for pointing that out. So, is there no way to get it to work in super-user mode?
