So far, I haven't found a Linux that wants to talk to my wireless card without doing a bunch of tinkering. Anybody have any thoughts or recommendations?
Boston plays Seattle tonight up in the Emerald City, with Big Jon Lester (I believe) taking the hill. I will not stay up to follow the result, so I will engage in the age old Sox ritual of catching the score the next morning.
I don't think I'll be able to help much if at all. But what Linux version do you use?
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm not. I'm looking to start, and I've tried a number of them, and none of them talk to my wireless card. If I really want to do this, it is looking like I'm just going to have to bite the bullet and make the modifications myself.
ReplyDeleteThat's just too much work.
What kind of wireless card are you using? I've got three laptops and a desktop running Ubuntu. I had to download restricted drivers (proprietary) a couple of times and once had to download the source and build my own. I hate having to look for drivers but there's usually lots of instructions out there to follow.
ReplyDeleteIf you have a windows driver for the card, you can use ndiswrapper (http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/) to use that driver on Linux.
Thanks. (Love your picture.)
ReplyDeleteI have googled it repeatedly, so I know about ndiswrapper, thanks. I have read a number of blog posts and such describing how to do it on my machine, so I'm certain I can do it. It's just a matter of going to my desktop, printing out the instructions, and following through.
Like I said, it's just too much work for me to contemplate right now.
