can't install drivers for internet usb and Nvidia cards

connect to a wired web connection and run:

sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade; sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-185

If you want your USB wifi to work can you please provide:

sudo lshw -C network
lsusb
sudo iwconfig scan

Thanks

~$ sudo iwconfig scan
scan No such device

*mistake in my previous post*

E: Impossible de trouver le paquet nvidia-glx-185

can't find nvidia-glx-185 package

sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-180

Should get that started with the nvidia

sudo iwlist scan

is the cli scanner. Looks like the USB device detected as:

04eb:e030 Northstar Systems, Inc.

and is implemented using the windows driver (.sys and .inf file) and ndiswrapper. beware though not all ndiswrapper implementations allow WPA so you may have to step down to WEP and implement more security using hidden ssid, mac filtering, limited dhcp scop etc.

~$ sudo iwlist scan
lo Interface doesn't support scanning.

eth0 Interface doesn't support scanning.

pan0 Interface doesn't support scanning.

Looks like you need the wrapper. Or you can buy a more supported USB adapter. What is printed on the case means nearly nothing. Its the chip inside that matters. If you research the chips you will know what to look for. Unfortunately Linux is not as supported as Windows in some areas of hardware.

If you download the windows driver matching your architecture, then use ndisgtk (installable from the install cd or if you use a wired connection you can get the latest and greatest from the repositorys)

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper

thamk you, i'll search that site

could we do this one step at a time?

first priority is video card, i've done all you've siad but it STILL isn't working.....'d like to know what I do wrong cause i don't see the end of this mess...

so sorry to botter you so much, by the way, i've used ubuntu for two years now, but i never took the time to learn the basic of programming.... never had a reason to anyways

To install the driver using NdisWrapper, follow these instructions:

   To install the driver, type the following:

      sudo ndiswrapper –i filename.inf

      Replace filename.inf with the name of the .inf file you discovered in the previous steps.

   Next, type the following:

      sudo ndiswrapper –m
      gksudo gedit /etc/modules

      This will open the modules configuration file for editing. On a new line at the bottom, add the following:

      ndiswrapper

      Ensure you press Enter after adding the line.

   Save the file, close Gedit, and reboot your computer.

Retrieve the Windows driver corresponding to your chipset: Use the ID information you have just found and the ndiswrapper list to find and download the correct windows driver files for your wireless adapter, or one which is very similar (same chipset ID).

this is what i found on your site, the problem is: the link to get the LIST for the driver fitting my card (04eb:e030 Northstar Systems, Inc.) isn't valid, even when i replace the "," for "."

-->http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/index.php?/component/option,com_openwiki/Itemid,33/id,list/

 then I tried the drivers for Xp and Vista on my installation CD of my D-Link card and it doesn't works... says :

~$ ndiswrapper -l
WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper, it will be ignored in a future release.
drivername : driver installed
 device (07D1:3C10) present

????? I'd like to get the proper driver if possible or a solution on what to get and do o finish what is already installed

tried every link for the drivers list, none of them work...

Retrieve the Windows driver corresponding to your chipset: Use the ID information you have just found and the ndiswrapper list to find and download the correct windows driver files for your wireless adapter, or one which is very similar (same chipset ID).

could you help me with that step?

thanks

You may be in luck:

DLink DWA-160 Rev A has a linux driver:
ftp://ftp.dlink.co.uk/wireless/dwa-160/DWA-160_driver_3.2.0.17_rev_A1_linux.zip

If you look on the back of the device you can see the revision. Here is an example:
http://www.dlink.co.uk/cs/Satellite?blobcol=urldata&blobkey=id&blobtable=MungoBlobs&blobwhere=1197399830242&ssbinary=true

If you have rev B then the xp driver is here:
ftp://ftp.dlink.co.uk/wireless/dwa-160/DWA-160_driver_2.10_rev_B_XPVista.zip

thanks a lot!

sorry to have been such a botter -_-'

No worries duder. Just hope you can enjoy your OS. Share the love but don't troll :D

Maybe you'll help others as you get more proficient with the OS.
