Just finishing up installing Ubuntu 10.04 on another laptop that has Win. 95 originally. Had read that the Ubuntu operating system won't recognize the card. I had used it in the same laptop, just for internet at home and at work. Is there anything I should know about making it work?I guess I should probably wait until it is finished installing, and then try the card.
View 1 RepliesI am in the process of installing Ubuntu 10.04 on another laptop, one that originally had Win. 95 on it. I had read that the Cisci 350 series lan card was not recognized by Ubuntu. This is the same card I used on the same laptop I am installing Ubuntu 10.4 on. Anything I should know?Or maybe I should just wait and see if it is recognized/works.

Things that may be of use am using WPA/WPA2 hardware of machine is IBM Thinkpad T30 (not one of there better models)I work from home and my work machine is working fine, along with all the other wireless kit in the house, it's just this machine.
Does anyone have a driver for Cisco Aironet PCMCIA AIR-CB21AG-A-K9 wireless adapter that works with Ubuntu 11.04? Ubuntu does not see the card when plugged into the PCMCIA slot. I thought that if Ubuntu had a driver installed, it would pick up the device.

There seems to be no sound and I checked to see if anything is muted but is not. The manual says that the sound chip is ALC888B so this could be the first problem. Any ide how I can make it work?

I'm on vacation and want to transfer pictures from my camera to my computer. I have a Micro SD adapter (2 GB) that I've tried to put into my SD slot on my computer, but it seems that Ubuntu doesn't recognize it (gotten a bit used to plug & play laziness, I guess). Does anyone know how to make Ubuntu recognize the memory card?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with an Acer Aspire One Netbook running 10.04 (although this problem occurred in Karmic as well). The problem is that if the laptop is unplugged from the AC adaptor, the power indicator doesn't pick up the change, although the screen dims (I think the BIOS dims the screen). This usually wouldn't be a problem, but when the laptop runs out of battery, the machine goes completely dead, rather than hibernating at critical like it should.
I've followed the instructions on the wiki page but it still doesn't work. Obviously I'm quite worried about data loss here, especially since it's a physical hard disk!
My laptop has an internal Broadcom wireless adaptor. It works fine for basic Internet access, but I cannot change the MAC address with ifconfig. I would like to be able to change my MAC address. Since this is a laptop, the only option for me to do this is a USB wireless adaptor. But compatibility is very hit-or-miss. I've already tried two USB adaptors that had been stated to be compatible with Linux, and while both worked for basic functionality, neither allowed me to change the MAC address.
For whatever reason, this information seems very, very difficult to find. I have spent upwards of ten hours cumulatively searching forums (including this one) and other resources, and have found only vague, outdated, or outright false information regarding USB adaptors that support this. I believe I will be doing a great service to other users like myself by getting this question directly and conclusively answered for once, and the more responses, the better.
Questions:
Do you have (or know of) a USB wireless adaptor that actually allows you to change the MAC address?
If so, what is the specific brand and model number, and what steps were necessary to install the drivers?
Firstly, apologies if there is anything incorrect about this request for help. Consider me an intelligent but ignorant first time Ubuntu user. I have a USB wifi adaptor, [URL]../B...ef=oss_product, which claims to be Linux compatible. It was supplied with a CD that includes a Linux directory but windows-only documentation. How do I install the drivers etc, the device is currently entirely unrecognised by Ubuntu 10.04.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a older Dell desktop running a older version of Ubuntu 9.04. I recently got a Belkin N300 micro wireless usb adaptor so I could use it to connect to the internet. I have a Verizon MiFi 2200 wireless router that I use for internet access. The desktop won't recognize the new hardware. It came with a driver disc, but it's for windows.
Will this adapter even work with linux?
If so, how do I get it to work?
I have SUSE Linux 10.1 kernel 2.6.16.21.I copied the source RPM package for the broadcom netxtreme gigabit network adaptor and put it in the location /usr/src/linux as the instructions said. when I try to build it it is looking in the location 2.6.16.21-0.25-smp as you can see from the stdout shown below. So this version of the kernel is obviously 2.6.16.21-0.25-smp but I got the kernel source code for 2.6.16.21 from kernel.org. So the question is how to find the source code for 2.6.16.21-0.25-smp so that the driver will compile.---regards, WER

I am using a Laptop with Fedora 12 and got a recent issue with the power management. I am not sure if this issue is Fedora-related, thereforeI have a (relatively) new main battery in my laptop and a (relatively) new Ac adapter (both not older than 6 months). Besides, a second battery is installed. Recently, I took out the second battery because I needed to use the CD rom drive. Then I put back the second battery (when the laptop was off, of corse).
After I switched the Laptop on again, everything works fine unless the laptop is thinking I am unplugging and plugging in the AC adapter every 3 seconds or so. I can see that behavior when clicking on the battery symbol, as the following terms change every few seconds:AC Adapter: Plugged inAC Adapter: Not Plugged inAlso I notice that the batteries are much slower charged than before when the laptop is operating, and even slower or halting when the laptop is powered off.
I set up an older computer with Ubuntu 9.10 and tried to get my Linksys AE1000 Wireless N adapter to work. My first mistake was not checking in advance to see if this adapter would work, but I have taken the leap and I am intent on making it work. I ran lsusb and it gives me a device number (13b1:002f) so I know it can be seen and I have also installed indisgtk the GUI for Wirless drivers. I have tried some suggestions from other posts to no avail.

Linux doesn't seem to recognise this device at all. I had a look online from another PC for drivers. and they are provided by Belkin themselfs but only for Windows XP/Vista.Is it possible to get this working on openSUSE. I previously used this very same adaptor on an Unbuntu 10.2 PC and it worked with no problems at all.
I have configured my PC to run a linux 2.6 kernel in VMware and have no problem loading the image and using the wired network adaptor and the basic functions. I am having trouble finding the wireless network however. My Box has an " Intel(R) Centrino(R) Advanced-N 6250 AGN " wireless network adaptor. From what I can tell, this is supported by this version of linux. I have the adaptor enabled, my image settings as bridged, and the wimax enabled in the removable devices (connected). When I run WiCD manager I get the error message " Could not connect to wicd's D-Bus interface "

View 5 Replies View RelatedI just installed the Natty Beta and plugged in a Netgear WG111v3 USB wifi adapter. It is using the RTL8187B driver and worked out of the box. The problem it loses my connection every few minutes. Sometimes not for 10 or 15, sometimes like a minute or less. After it loses the connection, I have to uncheck "enable wireless" (which I assume is the equivalent of bringing down my wireless interface) and then check it again before it will let me reconnect. I don't want to try ndiswrapper because the card works great when it works, including monitor mode and packet injection!
