w-muteAre you sure the module is loaded?18:20
E42i really got no idea whats the problem18:20
E42not really18:21
E42can you tell me how to check it?18:22
E42lsmod?18:22
w-muteTry lsmod | grep BLABLA where you replace "BLABLA" with some string that is unique to your wifi card. Like "prism".18:22
w-muteOr just lsmod and look for yourself. It's always hard to grep if you aren't sure what you should grep for.18:22
E42ok18:22
E42well there is a module18:23

E42hmm i entered dmesg18:23
w-muteOK. Looks like the module is loaded but not used.18:23
E42and at the last line18:24
E42i got18:24
E42prism54: Your card/socket may be faulty, or IRQ line too busy :(18:24
w-muteHmm. Strange.18:24
E42should i reinstall ubuntu18:25
w-muteNo.18:25
E42at ubuntu 7.04 everything was fine18:25
E42i used ndiswrapper+ windows drivers18:25
E42and it was great18:25
w-muteHmm. OK. I have absolutely no experience with that kinda setup.18:25
E42Ok, anyway thanks18:26
w-mutenp18:26
w-muteYou could boot from a 7.04 live CD and see if the card still works.18:26
w-muteMaybe there is a hardware problem.18:26
E42hmm18:27
w-muteIf the card still works, you have a software-related issue. I guess Google will be your best friend, then.18:27
E42i got also windows on that laptop and the network works18:27
E42ok so i have to google my luck18:27
w-muteI think so.18:27
E42allright, thanks18:28
