Angry Need Help Getting Wireless Network On Unbuntu!!!


[Log in to get rid of this advertisement]
I just switched over to ubuntu, and I am enjoying it very much. I'm having trouble setting up my wireless network. I have a wireless NIC its a Dynex DX-BGDTC, and I'm not sure where I can find the drivers for it or how to get it recognized by unbuntu, any help would be much appreciated.

Note - the chipset of the card is more useful than the brand and such. Physically look at the card and read what it says.

Is it this one?

That has a broadcom bcm4318kfbg chipset which has in-kernel support since 2.6.17 - but they are stubborn.
