Here is the WLAN installation steps I followed in Hardy/Samsung-NC20. I copied it from another forum. It worked with Ubuntu 8.04, Hardy Heron. You should connect to a LAN before this. First under System/Administration/HardwareDrivers, disable both the Atheros HAL and the Atheros wireless thing and then reboot. Then
sudo aptitude update sudo aptitude install build-essential subversion cd ~ mkdir madwifi cd madwifi svn co https://217.24.1.142/madwifi/branches/madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6 cd madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6 make sudo make install sudo gedit /etc/modules # type "ath_pci" without quotes to the end of the file. Save and close. sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist # type "ndiswrapper" without quotes to the end of the file. Save and close. Now you can reboot and it should work. On the system tray you can choose your WLAN and enter your password. Remember to delete the directory madwifi in your home folder Places>Home Folder if everything is fine. May be you will have to do it again after kernel update. -- Samsung NC20 - Ubuntu 8.04 Atheros WLAN problem https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/374107 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
