Jadedi think what helped was opening nvidia x server settings, and setting up my monitor and then creating a xorg.conf file from that00:02

mattman55Ok, I use a dlink dwl-650+ wireless card. I have used ndiswrapper before to install the drivers from WinXP using ndisgtk on ubuntu 10.04. now i am using xubuntu 10.04. when I run lshw -C network I get a *-network UNCLAIMED. i seem to remember getting this issue before. as a pointout, it does say that it is ACX100 Wireless interface, but I have tried the acx100 drivers already. also, when i try iwconfig, wlan0 does not show up, just lo and eth0. Thanks23:52
mattman55in advance for any help.23:52
