You have not needed ndiswrapper for unbuntu since 7.10. I have 8.04 on my
laptop with a broadcom chip and no need for ndiswrapper. And I hear that
9.10 that came out recently is really nice. I can't wait to upgrade.
Thanks

Do you have any specific examples of which drivers for which device? I
haven't had the same experience of it being a big issue as you have,
though we may just be using different devices.
Broadcom wireless chips for one. Dell uses broadcom wireless chips for
their in house label ... and the only way to get those to work is to use
ndiswrapper.
Many video cards cause problems also. ATI & NVidia both require you to
jump through hoops to get their proprietary drivers to work. Ubuntu has
addressed this pretty well, but Fedora certainly hasn't.
