Hi all..
I don’t want to get too technical in this section of the forums as I know this is not the place, I was just wondering why there seems to be so many problems with WI-FI in Breezy. My PCMCIA card worked out of the box in Hoary with absolutely no need for any configuration, but in Breezy the hardware is detected but no connection made. Browsing these forums I see im not alone in finding this problem. The installation was done on my test hard drive so I’m not too worried about fixing it at the moment as my default Hoary installation works perfectly. I was just interested as to why an upgrade has encountered a hardware compatibility problem that was not present in the earlier release?
