ok - moved into new room - getting busy!

yayu

yeah

fossfreedom

any errors when you install b43-cutter this time?

yayu

fossfreedom

when you do a sudo lshw -class network does it still say "disabled"

yayu

I dont understand the output. Looks like a bunch of configurations. ( ...|grep disabled) doesnt say anything either

fossfreedom

*-network DISABLED
description: Wireless interface
physical id: 2
logical name: wlan0
serial: 00:1d:4f:fa:a7:52
capabilities: ethernet physical wireless
configuration: broadcast=yes driver=b43 driverversion=3.0.0-12-generic

this bit - does it still say this?

yayu

no...

just *-network and then description, id, version, etc...

fossfreedom

what is the words after *-network...

yayu

HEY!

Could you please post any answer...

it worked

(although it does not show anything on the list of additional drivers)

that's why I was confused

but when I clicked the wifi icon

fossfreedom

you've got internet?

yayu

15:04

it was recognizing networks and it connected

YES!! :)

fossfreedom

just to confirm - fire up firefox - go to google!

yayu

yes

visited askubuntu

could you please post an answer, so I could award the bounty and correct answer...

fossfreedom

we have lift off! excellent. If you dont mind - I'll summarise what we discussed in an answer. thanks.

yayu

no problem. The most relevant bit was to get the oneiric version of b43-fwcutter, and to ignore step4 (i.e for some reason the driver may not be listed)

thanks a lot for all the help

fossfreedom

you are welcome - you'll see as answer in the next 5 minutes.
