Dell Wireless 1390 on 11.04 not working
Asked by
Alex Tarbox
I recently installed 11.04 side by side with Win 7, and I plugged the lan cable into the laptop and downloaded every possible update for ubuntu, but the wireless card doesn't work. It detects it and says it has the latest proprietary drivers installed, but the wireless light on the laptop itself is not turning on, and I cannot connect to any wireless networks, even manually. It works perfectly in Win 7 however, so I'm unsure if this is just an issue with Dell needing to update their drivers in order for it to work, or if there's something else I can do in ubuntu to get it going? I'm not really technical with ubuntu yet though so I don't know what to check for or type in a terminal.
