ndiswrapper is NOT closed source. And I'm not asking you to "care".


I don't want the pain of debugging crashes on the machines which run unknown code
in kernel space.

I'm not asking you to debug crashes. I'm simply requesting that the
kernel stack size situation remain as it is: with 8K as the default
and 4K configurable.

I can be happy with 4K as the default, everything I use *except* ndiswrapper seems to run fine (I don't currently need fancy filesystems) but laptops seem to include a lot of unsupported hardware, which can't be replaced due to resources (money, slots, batter life).
