I already in effect tried that; when I ran the command 'unzip' on it, the machine renamed it "sp58586.exe.ZIP" and looked at it and said "gar nicht," or words to that effect.
I grabbed the same file and indeed it's a windows executable and not a zip or self-extracting zip as first hoped.
If you run it under WINE it craps out part way through, however not before unpacking it in ~/.wine/drive_c/SWSetup/SP38586
I had a look in there and there's setup.exe and some cab files for the installation (which halted as mentioned above). I then unpacked it with "unshield" and lo-and-behold there's a bunch of driver directories...
unshield x data1.cab The RT2860_Driver_XP2k directory is probably what you need for ndiswrapper? alan@deep-thought:~/.wine/drive_c/SWSetup/SP58586/RT2860_Driver_XP2k$ ls -l total 3504 -rw-rw-r-- 1 alan alan 14119 Feb 4 13:38 RaCoInst.dat -rw-rw-r-- 1 alan alan 238944 Feb 4 13:38 RaCoInst.dll -rw-rw-r-- 1 alan alan 31420 Feb 4 13:38 rt2860.cat -rw-rw-r-- 1 alan alan 564788 Feb 4 13:38 RT2860.inf -rw-rw-r-- 1 alan alan 2687552 Feb 4 13:38 RT2860.sys Cheers, -- Alan Pope Engineering Manager Canonical - Product Strategy +44 (0) 7973 620 164 alan.p...@canonical.com http://ubuntu.com/ -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
