Description tar 2005-01-21 08:19:19 UTC
Upon successful emerge of net-wireless/ndiswrapper-0.12-r3, the following is
printed:

 * check http://ndiswrapper.sf.net/supported_chipsets.html for drivers
 * Look for the following on that page for your driver:
 * 1234:5678

Upon loading that URL, one is told that the URL is deprecated and then
redirected to the new URL:

http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/index.php/List

The ebuild should be updated with the new URL.

Thanks for supporting this tool.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge ndiswrapper
2. Cut and paste URL printed post-install into your web browser
3. See the message about being redirected 

Actual Results:  
I was told I was using an outdated URL
