Hi there! I am pretty new with Ubuntu and I canīt access the internet bc the ethernet controler and the network controller are unclaimed. So I guess I have to install the appropriate drivers. How can I do this without an internet connection available in Ubuntu?
The computer is a dualboot (Win 7 / Ubuntu Lucid Lynx), the controllers are:
Atheros AG8151 (Ethernet) and Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205 (Network). They work fine under Win 7.
Thanks for your help!
