I'm having somewhat of the same problem (and so did my friend). We each had working wifi cards with ubuntu 8, but now when we upgraded to ubuntu 10 they don't work. He went back to 8. I'm not upgrading my other computer for fear of the same thing! They are 3 different computers having the same issues.

I got the recent upgrade, just by hitting the upgrade button. I didn't install with a cd and I don't recall an option regarding restricted items. I looked at the links about restricted software and it said nothing about wifi cards.

Any ideas?

**pdc** · May 11th, 2010

so the system shows; amongst other things

lspci Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+

if you google on

ubuntu RTL-8139

you such posts as this recent one

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1406907

chili555 suggested

sudo ethtool eth0
lsmod | grep 813
lspci -nn | grep Ethernet

what about you do the same,

ie copy and paste those three separate commands into a terminal, and then copy and paste the results back here;

and also have a read at the post to see if you might have a similar problem; the rtl-8139 is a venerable warrior; there are posts back to at least 2005 with drivers from then;

**Crio** · May 11th, 2010

10.04 supports switching off (blocking) wireless, but it seems to be somewhat buggy and tend to start in the off state. For example http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1466992
Try "rfkill list" and/or pressing wifi on/off buttons on your keyboard if you have them.

**rhyz** · May 11th, 2010

Right i will have a look,

I didnt think the wired connection would effect the wireless but i will give it a go i will try anything!

!!! CND0110E: For the selected connection type there was no active network interface found on your system

That's a false positive. I'll fix the code.

*** lsmod # (filtered)
Unrecognized character \xBF in column 40 at -e line 1.

That's a globalization issue which I fixed right now.

try blacklisting as suggested in the thread, let us know how you get on.

**rhyz** · May 16th, 2010

Hello Sorry i have not replyed i work weekends.

I tried blacklisting nothing changed it is not a usb wireless card it is a cardbus card.
