I am extremely new to Ubuntu and am having some problems with WiFi. About 2 months or so ago I ordered a new Dell TrueMobile 1350 MiniPCI wifi card and installed it on my Inspiron 5100 laptop. With some difficulty I configured Ndiswrapper. Until now everything has worked fine, Network Manager operated without a hitch and everything was great. Yesterday I turned on the computer and was unable to get WiFi.
Here is the print out from various utilities
lshw -C network:

If I run ndiswrapper -m:
Code:
module configureation contains directive install pci:[[Long string of numbers]] /sbin/modprobe ndiswrapper; you should delete that at /usr/sbin/ndiswrapper-1.9 line 868, <MOD PROBE> Line 7.
It does that almost 15 times with a higher line number at the end each time.
Does anyone have any idea about what I should do next?
Thanks in Advance,
Daniel
