In Ubuntu 8.04 modules needed by the kernel could be missing. See with the command "uname -r" the kernel used. It could be for example "2.6.24-12-386" you get as answer.
Then go to the directory "cd /lib/modules/2.6.24-12-386" or putting here the answer you got with "uname -r". You should see ,using "ls" in this directory, the directory named "ubuntu" in the output. In this Ubuntu directory are directories called "sound" and "wireless", having modules needed by the kernel. Many users had sound problems, I had too, using another kernel for example 2.6.24-12-generic could solve the problem if the "/lib/modules/2.6.24-12-generic has the directory named "ubuntu". I had the sound problem ,solved it, but a new update now brings me back to the missing modules. So the why of the missing modules, after an upgrade or update seems to be the problem to be solved. I hope somebody will do it. -- unable to configure wireless network https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/210298 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
