I'm new to Ubuntu as of yesterday, and know very little of Linux in general. I tried RedHat for a while about 10 years ago and remember almost nothing from the experience. I'm up and running with everything working great with one exception -- my wireless. The error: Contents of jockey.log as suggested: -Sorry, it's long. Not sure what (if anything) is relevant.

Need to install b43 driver to use monitor mode on my card - versions are compatible, I ran
Code:
sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter
As told, but instructions end there. Pressed yes to download and extract firmware. Do I need to activate this driver somehow?
Info on wireless card:

I have the Dell Latitude D400 with the B4306 PCI card. I followed the instructions in the stickies on this forum and downloaded and installed the firmware. Still could not get the wifi card to work. Here is the read-out:

I am just beginning with Linux - please take pity on me.
I just installed Ubuntu lucid beta2, but I'm having no luck getting my wireless card (Asus WL-103b cardbus) to work. It uses the b43legacy driver. I have also installed the correct firmware. This card used to work if I'm not mistaken.

Can't get my WiFi to work on my HP. My WiFi chip is bcm4303 (rev. 2) this is a new thread from http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1400427&page=4 ) So, I reinstalled Ubuntu (fresh install) Activated the Broadcom b43leagacy Wireless driver. When rebooting, the WiFi LED on the On/Off switch blinks.

I've been using ubuntu fine for a while when I decide to activate my nvidia graphics card.After rebooting, however, I hit nothing but a black screen. I've searched the nets and others have seemed to solve the problem after hitting alt+ctrl+f1/f2 and editing some files after that, but that doesn't work for me. Booting into recover console gives me nothing but a long stream of white words before it runs to --> done. and then it goes back to a black screen. Running from Live CD I can't access my ubuntu files.

After updating fedora on my laptop there's the same error. I found this thread here in the forums but the link inside is dead. [url]
According to some google-results it has something to do with the gnome settings not being the same as the X-server settings.
This must be a repost, but I still want to ask, how do I activate the wireless on my laptop? I've been given advice about this a while back, but forgot. Just reinstalled a fresh copy of 9.10
Or is there an alternative way to do this?
I have a strange issue that I cannot put my finger on. Recently,I installed a new Ubuntu 10.04 server. No extra software yet, apart from openssh-server. The wired connection (eth1) works fine. I then added a wireless card with chipset p54pci, which appears to work with the wext driver. Configured /etc/wpa_supplicant, and /etc/network/interfaces as well:
This is wpa_supplicant:
Code:
This is interfaces:
Code:
After a reboot the machine comes up with both NICs active.
If I do a ssh from another Ubuntu machine to this machine (to 192.168.2.100, so the wired address) it takes about 30 seconds before I get the login as: prompt.
If I change the interfaces file so that wlan0 is not started (I comment out the line auto wlan0, and reboot), connecting from another machine with ssh alsmost instantly gives me te login prompt.
I tried switching the order of both NICs in the interfaces file. Also tried changing the sshd config file so that it only listens on the wired ip address. Both did not help.
Does anyone have a clue why logging in with ssh from another machine is very much slower in response with wlan0 activated than without ?
I got an older computer from a friend who had Windows XP as an operating system. I installed Ubuntu 10.04 on it, but cannot get the wireless controller to work. It is a BCM4303. Yes, it is an old one. So far I have spend virtually nothing on the computer. Ubuntu installed without a hitch as far as I can tell with the exception of this WIFI problem. I have searched the forums but got no matches. Perhaps I am using the wrong key words. Can anyone offer a solution or point me in the general direction.

Then reboot and your wireless should work.And it did bring up Wifi, although the Wifi indicator on the machine, that worked under Windows XP, did not come on.However, after a minute or so the Wifi stopped working.I looked in the messages log and have an entry that says kernel: b43legacy-phy0: Radio hardware status changed to DISABLED.
Is it any way of activating my wireless without using the external switch of laptop (currently broken)?
If yes how can I memorize this action so that each time I boot it will be automatically open?
I am using Ubuntu 10.10. In previous versions wireless was always activated.
Is there an easy way (or even a hard way) to activate wireless network capability from the command prompt? I want to do this because I like to use the fvwm window manager, but I also like wireless! (In fvwm wireless networking doesn't start up automatically.)
I tried just starting the wireless by...

Here's the new driver:
I have been having trouble with my wireless connection intermittently disconnecting and reconnecting repeatedly (sometimes every couple of seconds). I posted a thread about this here on Ubuntu Forums titled: Ubuntu 10.45 & NetworkManager Applet 8.0: Connects & Disconnects Frequently.
When I try to load the Realtek 8187 modules to kernel using the ./wlan1up command, I get the following error:

Can someone tell me how to correct the "Invalid module format"? I hope that correcting the "Invalid module format" error, I will not have the "Unknown symbol in module" error.
Note: I am using wlan1 for this module as I previously am online with the wlan0 network.The same error occurs if I use ./wlan0up.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI had a problem with using ndiswrapper to install Windows driver on Netgear WN511TA wireless adapter card. Problem solved by replacing Netgear WN511TA with Airlink101 AWLC6080 PCMCIA wireless adapter to work in my triple-boot XP Pro/Ubuntu Karmic/openSUSE 11.2 Toshiba laptop and using the latest Linux driver version 2.3.0.0 dated January 29, 2010 from Ralinktech site. I followed driver instruction in a Ubuntuforums tutorial (Howto: Ralink RT2860(m) PCI(e) RT2860...on Intrepid).
I am wondering if I can use the same Linux driver (RT2860sta) for openSUSE 11.2 on my triple-boot XP Pro/Karmic/openSUSE laptop, ie. copying over instead of building and compiling driver from source again, because I don't quite understand the build instruction given in the README file of Ralink's Linux driver file. Specifically, I don't know how to "define the GCC and LD (?) of the target machine, and define the compiler flags CFLAGS(?), modify your need (?)", etc. I already have gcc, cpp and make installed on the Ubuntu and openSUSE parts of my machine. I did try ndiswrapper in openSUSE but it doesn't work for the Windows version of the latest Ralink driver (error: invalid driver rt2860.inf).
