Ubuntu-Certification

are WiFi & bluetooth drivers available on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS for Dell Vostro 1015 ?

Asked by Prajith Pillai

I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate currently on my Dell Vostro 1015 since 2.5 years. I want to install Ubuntu 12.05 LTS instead nowadays because my laptop is having problems now and hangs a lot when I use the internet. My laptop has been affected with a virus which doesnot let copy/delete items on a USB pendrive when I try to copy files from Windows 7(laptop) to Windows XP (desktop). So, I couldn't copy files. But, I don't know if WiFi & Bluetooth drivers are available for my laptop.

Please help !!

I need to install Ubuntu urgently.

Hello!
I would like to suggest you to create a bootable usb for Ubuntu, therefore you can test the Wifi / Bluetooth functionality on your laptop.
