I have Ubuntu 8.10 installed in a dual boot configuration on a Compaq Presario 2135. My SMC 2532W-B PCMCIA high power wireless adapter will not connect using Ubuntu. That same card works OK using Windows XP, but using Intrepid, it apprears to be recognized, identifies the network, but apparently can't get an IP address, then disconnects. The network I am trying to use is unsecured.
On the same computer, and the same network, my 8187 based USB adapter works on both operating systems.
Would someone please help me to diagnose the cause of this problem
Jim
