Well, This is a bit of a rant I'm afraid... need to vent.
<rant class="frustrated">What gives with wireless? Why is it such an
issue for Ubuntu? 'Almost' every time I perform an apt-get upgrade or in
this case, a distribution upgrade, my wireless breaks! I'm getting
really fed up of it.
Now I don't want to be seen as whinging about something but not helping
to fix it, but it has been fixed in the past, as I have been using wifi
before on many previous versions on this hardware. But for some reason,
my particular wireless h/w, seems to get forgotten about or lost or
whatever whenever there is a major upgrade and I have to wait, sometimes
several weeks, for one of the upgrades to fix it. Or try various
different methods found by googling, which don't all work, which I fear
is cluttering up my system.
I don't understand how if it is fixed, why that bit of code or whatever
it is doesn't just stay put.
</rant>
Right now, after an upgrade to 11,04, I have no wireless devices
detected. Its not that I can't connect, I don't even have any wlan
detected.
Its a Realtek.
