Comment 8 for bug 197558

Thank you both for your suggestion. I tried them both. I tried Felix's suggestion first and it worked until the next time I booted the laptop. The wireless card has not been recognized even since. Then I tried Anders suggestion and it did not work either.

Next I did a clean reinstall of Ubuntu 8.04 alpha 6. Again I tried both suggestions again and neither worked. Since I desperately need wireless connectivity, I am about to give up on Ubuntu altogether and switch back to the awful Vista. Bad and all but at least I can communicate.

If there are any other suggestions, I would love to try them.

Thanks again.
