Ubuntu 5.04 Not Detecting Wireless Card

TechSonic · 09-21-2005, 07:11 PM

I'm using a D-link wireless network card in my other computer. So far bios detects it and it's all sorted into that. Now the only problem is, Ubuntu isn't seeing this card. Sense I can't get the linux wireless networking tools... What do any of you suggest?

This is the exact card I'm using... http://www.radioshack.com/product.as...5Fid=25%2D3274

Also the part at the bottom that suggests other stuff, like that D-Link is the exact router I'm using also.

Any help would be most appreciated.

It sounds like the kernel doesn't have built in support for your card. I checked D-Link's website, and it doesn't look like they offer linux drivers for your card. You could try looking on google for native linux drivers for it, or you can use ndiswrapper: http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/
