Hello folks,
After a sweary free morning I had of desperately installing the graphics drivers for my GeForce 6600 card, I noticed that afterwards my wireless card was now unclaimed.
After much awful installation and reinstallation of restricted drivers, envy and offical NVIDIA drivers etc etc I kept getting a "graphics card and monitor drivers not detected" or something. However, after following the instructions in this (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=797270&highlight=here%2C+download+173.14+driver+%28first+ listed%29.+Save%2Fmove+home+directory.) thread, it, somehow, worked. However, after that my wireless stopped working.
It worked fine before, although I had to type in iwconfig details such as essid and key every time I booted (I had no idea how to get it to connect to my network automatically, but let's not worry about that now :P)
There is nothing in my restricted drivers list for the card, and I'm not really sure where to go from here.
Thanks :)
