Re: Can't get Wifi to work on Eee PC 1000H
I have Ubuntu-eee 8.04.1 working perfectly on my 1000h.
I installed ubuntu-eee from usb stick, added both hardy and hardy-proposed repos from array.org, turned on proposed and backports in updates, installed the eeepc kernel (with wired net), upgraded all packages (make sure eeepc-config is installed, not sure if it is by default, there is also a ubuntu-eee meta package) and that was it for me i believe. Now everything works, exept 801.11n, i can only get g speeds, all the function keys work, toggle wireless, bluetooth etc
Fn + F2 toggels wireless. I also replaced networkmanager with wicd, it works much better and faster on the eee, wireless is up at the same time my desktop comes up, while with network-manager it took up to 30 seconds to get a connection.
