Hi Namaste,

There is probably some howto for that, did you find anything usefull?

Namaste is a greeting, isnt it (I checked that one :) yep Indian greeting).

Edit: I just thought it would be nice to add some usefull info:

This starter guide is for breezy 5.10: http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/faqguide-all.html

It is from the Ubuntu documentation project. You will like it

Since you have installed ubuntu , hop right over to http://www.ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=100 it contains many good howtos, fro instance for the drivers of your video card.

Reading this may also help: http://www.tuxfiles.org/ , a well written practical introduction.

Ofcourse there is the Wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/

Hi bwog

Thanks for your reply.:smile: The Howtos, Wikis and posts are usefull. Using those and a lot of head scratching I've managed to get my internal WLAN working with NDisWrapper, my winmodem working with SmartLink modem. Again, thanks for your support.

p.s. for me namaste means: I recognise the Buddha in you
