Thanks in advance to anyone that can help me fix this problem. I'm installing Lubuntu 12.04 as a fresh install on a brand new machine. I've gotten as far as getting it installed and getting the video drivers to work (they didn't out of the box). My wired connection is working just fine (using it to write this now). However, I can not, for the life of me, get the wireless card to work. I've been trying to get this to work for a couple of days and don't know what else to do at this point. Any help would be so greatly appreciated. Also, I'm a complete noob as this is my first time working with any form of linux. I've included output concerning the hardware in question below. Thanks again.
