The laptop has 2.6.20 (-16-ubuntu). I have a prism based card around I can try, I think. That's the only Airo card. What's odd is the machine is only about a month old. And when I first got it it would only sometimes associate with my AP which didn't broadcast ssid. I plugged in the Airo card and then both cards showed up in the nm-applet.[1] So when it didn't show up a few days ago I was wondering why. Maybe an apt-get update updated a package, I'm not sure. > You _really_ want to update your Airo firmware to something 5.30.17 or > greater too, firmware that old is actually bad news.

[1] Turned out that there's a problem getting that card to associate if ssid isn't broadcast. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/50214 and some faq on ibm.com that I can't find right now... -- Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
