Wireless on CQ57
I just installed Mint 14 on my Compaq CQ57. Seems to work OK, I'm here with it. I'm using the wired network connection. How do I enable wireless? I don't see an icon in the bottom tray. Does that mean I don't have the driver install properly?

Hi:
Finding out what Network Interface Card you have first should help. Once you know that you can look for a driver for it but most distro's come with the drivers you need. Run the command: Code:
lspci A useful command to diagnose and see what you have. If you discover that you do not have a NIC you'll need a USB Adapter and a driver for that. You should have a network/interface file that shows all the wired and wireless information. In my case in the network/interface file I had to comment out the wired arguments to get my wireless working even tho I had the adapter. Quote:
