cjtrimAnyone help with figuring out how to get a wireless USB adapter to work on 12.04.1, please?? Its a Cysco AE2500.02:58
cjtrimIve been checking forums but havent found anything that matches my case exactly.03:00
wilee-nileecjtrim, If you have tried some methods already make sure that info is included, but here is a link. To be honest usb wifi's are cheap and there is a wiki on ones that work out of the box. http://askubuntu.com/questions/105918/cisco-linksys-ae2500-wireless-adapter-not-working03:01
wilee-nileeThis one appears to need a ndis wrapper at the least, more work than I would do.03:01
cjtrimI see. Thank you03:02
wilee-nileenot everyone has the money though I understand, but it appears this one can be made to work. ;)03:04
manwhatthis is an awkward question, but I started using Ubuntu in the past week and am really enjoying it, which leads me to the question... is there any ways in which Windows 7 is actually superior to Ubuntu?08:21
manwhatthe only thing so far I've found is that it's difficult in Ubuntu to change how much the mouse scrolls with each notch of the mouse wheel08:21
