I found out what hardware I have by clicking System -> System Preferences -> Hardware Testing. Maybe not the most elegant way to do it, but it worked. On a MacBook Pro rev. 3, testing with Ubuntu 8.10 Alpha 4+, there is no Wi-Fi usuable. The hardware testing software told me that this notebook has

That is very strange. Make sure you have wpa_supplicant installed, then try again. This is just ridiculous, the Madwifi team needs to get on this. -- madwifi not working on macbook core duo with hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/221837 You received this bug notification because you are a memb
