Thanks for the replies folks ... I was afraid of that. I'll give the Xubuntu and Lubuntu options a shot.

Evening everyone. I finally gave up with 12.04 LTS. Unfortunately it wasn't for me. Ran slower than a crusty laptop on ******* xp. Seems as though the unity interface may still not be ready for...

Latest update on mine. Still no solution - I've now used the lan connection into a spare switch I had lying around. Using remote desktop on my laptop to access it. Not an ideal solution but the...

Seems this is pretty old - but it was the first thread that came up. Is there a new link to this one? I tried but keep getting a 404 error. Trying to get files onto a go-gear as well.

TIA

Logged bug #1010226

Thanks again Chili

No worries - you've been more than generous with your help. Thanks. I'll get a bug logged asap. I even went out and bought another wireless router just in the off-chance it was something related...

Sorry - I'm pretty much a noob so please bear with me.

Hmmm I did some more poking around. There appears to be different bin files in /lib/firmware/rtlwifi bewtween the linpus installation and the ubuntu installation.

Could it be that these missing...

Greetings everyone - I'm hoping that someone can help me with this one because it's driving me crazy. I recently bought an Acer Veriton 'nettop'. This box comes loaded with linpus linux. I have...

Has there been any update on this one? I'm debating pulling the trigger on secureCRT for Linux but the price of $100 is pretty outrageous.

Thank goodness - I thought it was just me :) I'm having similar issues with wireless not working in 12.04 but this is with a new install on an Acer 281G Nettop using a realtek wireless card.
