I am running xubuntu and i am new to it. I opened the hardware devices panel, and i had to install a grapics driver for my nvidia card. Once i restarted the computer, my wireless crashed. I disabled the driver so that i would have wireless but i still cant install it. Any help?

Perhaps you can give more info on your issues!
From the terminal type: lspci
Also do a cat on your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
And post all info.

Could we possibly make that
sudo lshw -C displayThank you.

Further, are you certain the wireless malfunctioning and the graphics driver are related? This seems very odd.

As for the wireless, can you post the output of
sudo lshw -C network && iwconfigPreferably when malfunctioning.
