Balsaqtell me about the new hardware support11:40
MoonTigerwell i have a thinkpad t500 that has some newer hardware like ATI graphics cards and sound cards that weren't so good on jaunty11:41
MoonTigeron karmic they work great11:41
MoonTigerit is a better release AFTER you revert back to GDM 2.20 imho11:41
Balsaqyeah i experienced the ati thing on an older computer i have...that whole ati thing was a real pain11:41
Balsaqi still haven't got any of my linux/buntu compputeres going with wireless yet11:42
MoonTigerreally??11:42
MoonTigerwhat wireless cards do u have?11:42
Balsaqyeah i kinda gave up early....11:42
Balsaqis it easy to do?...maybe it was jus the particular adapter i have...they couldnt even get me done in the channel "wireless"11:43
Balsaqverizon couldnt figure it either11:43
MoonTigerit just works out of the box for every machine ive had in the last 4yrs11:44

MoonTigerno11:46
Balsaq?11:46
MoonTigerit should judt detect it11:46
MoonTigerand work11:46

MoonTigerright click on network manager and say edit11:46
Balsaqwell lets see what mine is...11:47
MoonTigeredit connections sorry11:47

Balsaqyes i am going to11:49
Balsaqill leave this one my xp box anyway11:49

Balsaqi cant remember if i tried the edit connection route11:50
Balsaqyeah really piszes me off11:50
MoonTigerthats why i but thinkpads11:50
