I am trying to get my wireless to start working.
I am running Xbuntu on my laptop.
I have installed Ndiswrapper and it still isn't working.

Can you post your lspci -nn (from the Terminal)? It will help us figure out what wireless card you have. Thanks!

I don't know what I have.
How do I find it?

Unfortunately, there is no GUI version that provides this information. I think that Xubuntu might use Xterm. If you can find this, can you go into it and type:
lspci -nn

I put that code in Terminal and got:

Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8101E PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller [10ec:8136] (rev 01)

I think that is your wired card. Is there another one that has Network Controller or Ethernet Controller?
