How to start ndiswrapper at boot time

I recently installed ndiswrapper on my Kubuntu powered laptop using some excellent instructions I posted earlier. The only thing I needed to do was to tell my system to load ndiswrapper at boot time. Following is the procedure that I used to have ndiswrapper loaded at boot time.

All I had to do is open up the file /etc/modules as root and add the following line to the configuration:

ndiswrapper

As an example of what you might see when editing the /etc/modules file, here's what my /etc/modules file looked like after I added the configuration for ndiswrapper:

# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file contains the names of kernel modules that should be loaded
# at boot time, one per line. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored.

ndiswrapper

After you've made the changes to your /etc/modules file, reboot your computer and ndiswrapper should load automatically.
