Hi all, I'm a complete novice who installed ubuntu 10.10 this morning, which seemed like it worked great until I noticed that I had to connect to the wireless network manually each time I re-started etc.
I did some research into this and found that if you disable the network manager via the terminal section by replacing certain lines with 'deny' instead of accept or something. I did this however the nm was unable to connect anymore!
I've been tearing my hair out searching the net, and this forum for a solution but to no avail. Ive since removed network manager while trying one (of many) ways I found online, so need to install it once more. I even tried to install the whole os again from the disc that I did so with initially, but it doesn't work either!
Ill be more than happy to connect every time I turn on if it means I can access the net once more!
Can anyone help me out here?! Pretty please!
