Can I delete the folder now?!


Recommended Posts

So, I've been using Linux (Xubuntu) for a whole day now!

I had connection issues with my wifi card but after reading up a bit I installed the windows driver via ndiswrapper with no problem.

My question is:

I originally extracted the driver to a folder on my desktop, is it safe to delete this folder now, or does ndiswrapper still need this?

Not sure?

Rename the folder. If you can reboot and the wireless still works, you know it is safe to remove ;)

(I am guessing it will be OK, but I don't use wireless/ndiswrapper, so I am not 100% sure)

It should be fine to delete; ndiswrapper stores the driver files elsewhere. Keep in mind though, it may be handy to keep around somewhere in case you decide to switch distros or otherwise need to set up ndiswrapper again.
