Hi, I'm new to using Ubuntu, only installed it maybe...two days ago.
So, I wanted to install my wireless card and make it work...but that didn't happen. I went on the net and found a guide (in addition to the wiki one) about how to use ndiswrapper. So I tried it. I successfully found the driver, added it, checked to make sure it's enabled, but when I checked for errors...(tail var/log/errors) I found a lot...I think anyway. What should I do based off of this output?
