Re: [Bug 92748] Re: Latest Feisty Fawn Breaks Dell Laptop Intel Wireless
Yes Flossgeek, There's a lot that's difficult to understand and I certainly don't understand enough to make any real comment accept that all problems disappear on both Win Xp and UBuntu when I connect to the wireless router with a wire ! OK at least the logic implies it can't be UBuntu specific.

Re: [Bug 92748] Re: Latest Feisty Fawn Breaks Dell Laptop Intel Wireless
Hi Flossgeek, There's more to this stuff than meets the eye, when I connect (wireless) to our wireless router with a file share client (bit comet etc) it will break the effective connection though it will still show a running ok in the task bar. This happens in both Windows and Ubuntu, if I take a cable and connect to the wireless router all is well. This presumably has nothing directly to do with the Ubuntu wireless but is none the less weird.

Re: [Bug 92748] Re: Latest Feisty Fawn Breaks Dell Laptop Intel Wireless
That Bug's taking a walk ! Sarah's advise to update the kernel and install the restricted package seemed to fix my Dell with a Pro/Wireless 2200BG. That was probably a kernel ago now. Let's hope there will be a real solution as it looks like this card is pretty ubiquitous.

Re: [Bug 92748] Re: Latest Feisty Fawn Breaks Dell Laptop Intel Wireless
Hi Benoit, Thanks again for your interest, Sarah's comments fixed the wireless connection problem on my Dell. I did see that although (when it was broken) I could choose the ESSID when I then listed the wireless properties it gave ESSID as nothing, no value. I don't know what that means or if it's significant. Best regards /Melvyn On 3/16/07, Benoit Malet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hello ! > > I checked on my laptop ...

Re: [Bug 92748] Re: Latest Feisty Fawn Breaks Dell Laptop Intel Wireless
Yes Sarah, It looked like herd 5 was well down the dev path but your point is solid. I am looking for a workstation that I can use as reference when "normal" people mention a MS Windows alternative and UBuntu seems to me to be so close. Impatience got the better of me. Unfortunately I don't have much experience with NIX systems of any kind but I will keep looking at UBuntu, it is the system that runs the most with the minimum amount of adjustment and setting up.

Thanks Benoit, Unfortunately since I have no network I can't get the kernal updates, maybe I could find a PC and download a new Feisty CD? All the best Melvyn M.
