"Linux supported wireless card driver for Linksys wireless-g adaptor?

northcoastrat · 10-20-2006, 09:59 PM

Hello All,
I have a Linksys Wireless-G 2.4 GHz usb network adaptor that I have been using in windows for a few years. This year I installed ubuntu and was wondering if there is a Linux supported driver out there for this card. Thanks for the help.

Welcome to LQ!

That depends upon the chipset of the card.
Issue "/sbin/lspci | grep -i ethernet" in a terminal and post the output here.

Ok, I'm having the exact same problem. I ran that command in a terminal but don't know how to view the output.... I'm sorry, I'm such a noob...

Thanks for the help!

Run that command in a terminal and post the output here.
Put [_code] without the underscore before your output,
and [_/code] without the underscore after your output so
that it's easier to read. We'll tell you what to do next
after reading your output.

I'm running Xubuntu.....and basicly having the same issue....the OS see's the card but will see any ssid's or able to connect to the network. I tried running that script in the terminal...said that path didn't exist?? I'm a noob at linux sorry.
