    My wireless card is not detected

    I am running Ubuntu 13.04 and I can only connect via ethernet my wifi card is not even recognized. I was looking throught the forums and tried to resolve the problem on my own, but couldnt I typed this command

    Code:
    lshw - C network
    and got the following output which leads me to believe it is not detecting the wireless card

    Code:
     *-network

    Let's dig a bit deeper:
    Code:
    lspci -nn | grep -e 0200 -e 0280
    lsusb

    ...And:
    Linux driver
    none
    Your alternative is to get the Windows XP drivers and use ndiswrapper. You seem willing to try to solve problems on your own, but I will be very happy to help if you get stuck.
