I do have it working now.  This laptop has a little button that allows
you to turn on or off the wireless.  Equivalent to pulling a PCMCIA card
out.  I do not know if that has anything to do with the problem but I
finally got my own version of the Ubuntu Live CD to support ndiswrapper
with my chip set.  Ubuntu's Wiki stated that if I was trying to do this
with the Live CD then "forget it".  Well it is Linux ain't it?  I simply
had to remake the cd with my driver on it.  Now I just need to figure
out a way to automate the process so it comes up automatically.

Here is how I did it:

# ndiswrapper -i <driver>
# modprobe ndiswrapper 
# iwconfig wlan0 essid "jupiter"
# dhclient wlan0 &


I'm not sure why I had to tell the system what SSID it needed to connect
to.  I thought that after the modprobe then the system would locate the
proper AP.  The one it can find the easiest.  Maybe it will
automatically find Jupiter after I do  the dhclient and it tries to get
an address?
