Who to install Wireless built in card of a Toshiba Tecra 9000?

Asked by private

Hi
I have a Toshiba Tecra 9000 laptop. Ethernet conection is great. But I cannot use the built in wifi card. Ubuntu 7.04 does not recognize it. The card worked on windows, after i installed the driver I downloaded from the Toshiba web site. How can I install that driver in Ubuntu? Help is appreciated.
Thanks!!
