I was just pasting and editing from levmatta's earlier post, but I made one mistake this is how /etc/init.d/ndiswrapper & /etc/rc1.d/S01ndiswrapper actually look:

#! /bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: ndiswrapper
# Required-Start:
# Required-Stop:
# Default-Start: S
# Default-Stop:
# Short-Description: enable to load ndiswrapper
# Description: enable to load ndiswrapper
### END INIT INFO

rmmod ohci_hcd
rmmod ssb
rmmod wl
rmmod ndiswrapper
modprobe ndiswrapper
modprobe ssb
modprobe ohci_hcd
depmod -a

############# end file #############

I hope this helps someone who can't use their bcm4328 wireless card with intrepid ibex.

Also, if anyone has any tips about WPA supplicant and why it doesn't work with WPA encryption, but will work with WEP, please post a response here, because I haven't found anything related to incompatibility with ndiswrapper. I have tried using the ndiswrapper WPA driver in Wicd, but that doesn't connect at all, producing wpa_cli returns results none. It happens for both my locally compiled version and the intrepid wpasupplicant deb package produced binaries.
