brandon, hi..
you probably don't want to rely on ndiswrapper 0.6. There's been a great deal
of development done on the driver since then..
in order to help you along at a later step, please provide your 'uname -r' output.
in order to build the kernel module, you need the 'make' package installed.
if you don't also have 'gcc' and 'glibc' packages installed, you'll need them, too.
(you can grab them from the SuSE 9.1 Professional mirrors)

Just kind of a side note for anyone interested. I was recently trying to get my linksys wpc54gs card working under suse 9.1 no luck with ndiswrapper or anything so I tried my D-Link DWL-G650 AirPlus Xtreme G card and Suse 9.1 auto configred it and it worked fine so at least with Suse that card worked fine.

I use SuSE 8.2 and the wpc54g card with ndiswrapper - where did it fail for you?
