*new User* having problems installing wireless driver

[Andrewz1989]

hi guys

im new to the whole ubuntu o/s world and after hearing so much about it and being amazed from what i have been seeing iv just downloaded it via wubi just to give it a try.

so iv sat down to do the first step of connecting my desktop to the internet and after twiddeling my thumbs for over an hour i thought i wud come here for some friendly advice.

i have a belkin wireless network adaptor which connects to the adsl wireless routor outside

i have the drivers (Belkin F5D 7050v1) saved on my usb memory stick but i just can not install it

what i need to know is: can i install this driver onto abuntu? and if so how?

quick replys would be apreciated.


cheers guys

(See the end of the post) seems to suggest using ndiswrapper.
