OK I think I have all the information I need. It is probably going to take me a little while to implement it all. The basics are well laid out in the following post. Thanks to all the people who...

Thank You all for your help and suggestions. I have now found a driver at Ralink that I think is the right one. I believe the wireless card is a RT5390 and ralink have a Linux driver for that. I have...

Definitely +1 from me. :guitar:
I have a wireless problem and this guy is making a serious effort to help. I am a novice (no programming experience since learning Fortran in 196?) and he gave me...

Yes, I found the driver page there but I have no idea which one I need and they have not replied to my inquiry. ASUS can't tell me what the Ralink product model number is and all the drivers are...

I'm thinking I might just sell this machine to someone who likes Windough$ (do you know anyone in Central America who wants a brand new ASUS cheap) and buy another brand...

I just installed 10.04 in my new Asus K73E and everything seems to be working great except my Internet connection (wireless). Can anyone tell me where I might find a driver for the installed Ralink...

OK I tried the terminal idea - same result
and the right click then open in wine - same result

then I right clicked the exe file and opened properties and noted that it was not marked as an...

OK I tried that and got two results. The first result was a pop-up message telling me that the file was not marked as executable. I believed it and pressed OK. The message went away and I tried...

execute them - I want to run a windows program in wine. When I try to do this it says I don't have permission.

I use Ubuntu 11.04 as my primary OS and the original windough$ is still an option (for the time being). What I would like to do is open a selected number of the exe files (currently in the Windough$...
