Can something be done about this?
I would be very surprised if there are enough details about the problem there for anyone to diagnose it. We need more details about what you have tried to do and what has gone wrong. Ubuntu comes with network manager for controlling connections to wireless networks, and this should be in the system tray, if you click on it you should get a list of available networks. Do you see "Wireless Networks" as a line in that list. If it is an irreparable problem with the built in wireless you can probably add a PCMCIA wireless card. ________________________________________________________ Robert McWilliam [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.ormiret.com Always and never are two words you should always remember never to use. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
