Hi,

I still do not see any link to a web address containing the mentioned pdf.

Can you simply connect your pc to your broadband modem using a LAN cable, so that you can access the Internet using Ubuntu?

That way, you can copy-paste the command line output into Firefox using Ubuntu.

Regards,

Mark

do i need to send anything

jc

again no answers yet?????
i have not heard from ya

thanks i did get the wireless icon to come up in the network were it should bebut you sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper didn't work but i went the ndiwrapper web sit and downloaded there program and did the wireless icon to come upnow it doesn't recognizes my router signal or next door signal and it says thisThe instructions below explain how to install ndiswrapper. This israther short version; more details about installation,troubleshooting, FAQ etc. can be found in the Wiki athttp://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/wikiPrerequisites =============You need a recent kernel, at least 2.6.16, with header files for thekernel. Make sure there is a link to the kernel source from the modulesdirectory. The command  ls /lib/modules/`uname -r`/buildshould have at least 'include' directory and '.config' file.Downloading ===========Download the latest version of the ndiswrapper sources from here andextract it with the command  tar zxvf ndiswrapper-version.tar.gzThis will create ndiswrapper-version directory. Change to thatdirectory and run  make uninstall  makeLogin as root and run  make installInstall Windows driver ======================If this is the first time you install ndiswrapper, you need to installWindows driver for Windows XP (in some cases Windows NT or Windows2000 may also work). First, get a Windows driver that is known towork. See http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/wiki/List for statusabout the device for which you are installing Windows driver. Forthis, you need to identify device ID with  lspci -nif it is PCI device or  lsusbif it is USB device.Then lookup in that List for the device ID and if a driver is known towork, get that driver. Occassionally, Windows driver on the CD or yourWindows partition may work, but if it doesn't, don't complain - get aknown-to-work driver.Many Windows drivers are distributed either as zipped files or cabfiles. Zipped files, even if they are .exe files, can be extractedwith 'unzip' in Linux; cab files can be extracted with combination of'cabextract' and 'unshield' programs.Once the driver has been unpacked, locate .inf and .sys files. Ifnecessary, move these files so both .inf and .sys are in the samedirectory. Some drivers also come with firmware files, such asfwrad16.bin etc. These files also should be in the samedirectory. Then install the Windows driver with  ndiswrapper -i driver.infThis installs .inf file and required .sys and .bin files. Now, see ifinstallation of Windows driver is "valid" with  ndiswrapper -lThis should report"driver present, hardware present"for the driver installed and if that driver is for the device that isalready in the system. If device is not present, it should report"driver present"If not, the Windows driver has not been installed properly.Now load ndiswrapper module with  modprobe ndiswrapperIf everything worked properly, this should initialize 'wlan0' wirelessdevice, which can be configured with wireless tools, such as'iwconfig', 'wpa_supplicant' etc.i don't under stand how to do this can you explan so i can do itdo thisdo thisdo thisi'm kind of old and can follow direction for unalbe to understan thisAGAIN THANKS FOR THE HELP-----Original Message-----From: "trobert" [<email address hidden>]Date: 10/18/2008 09:55 PMTo: <email address hidden>: Re: [Question #47679]: wireless connectionNote: Original message sent as attachment

hey, jc. i had the same problem when i first installed hardy. to solve
the problem, i had to find some way to connect to an ethernet network.
then through terminal, i installed "ndiswrapper" (sudo apt-get install
ndiswrapper), it's a utility that installs windows wireless drivers onto
ubuntu. after installation, restart and wireless was okay. i hope it
works for you.
