Public bug reported: Binary package hint: linux-wlan-ng
Thanks and greetings to all who contribute to this wonderful community :-) I am not sure of the package about which is bug is reported. Please change it if you find it suitable. I installed Ubuntu 8.04 on my new Samsung NC20 laptop. The installation program detected my WLAN card as Atheros. I can see this card in System>Administratio>Hardware. There is also a green tick mark with them. But I do not see any WLAN options on my network icon. I tried to set it manually too. Then I ran ifconfig and iwconfig from the command prompt. I did not see WLAN in both cases. Please let me know if I could be of any help to make my WLAN work out of the box with all new versions of Ubuntu. $lspci <snip> 01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros communications Inc.
