I have been trying to get my Dell b43 wireless device up and running. Been a LONG time since I played with Linux/Unix. Anyway, I have tried to follow a lot of the great help concerning installing the b43 legacy drivers and getting the wireless device up and running. One thing I noticed was that after installing files specified, and they were there after the install, that after a reboot, as suggested, they are gone. I currently have the install on a USB thumb drive and am wondering if I need to do the install to disk to get this working properly. I am using 12.04.1. I did try the software update as suggested but it gave some errors so I am wondering if this is an issue with the thumbdrive. I did not see any activity to the drive.
I am thinking it is not possible to do these updates while running from the USB drive.
Any help is appreciated.
