Mathew's comments: Dell and Ubuntu: it’s all about the drivers

Tris Hussey · 2 years ago

I completely agree. I keep trying various Ubuntu live CD builds hoping that my wireless hardware will work out of the box, no such luck. Yes, I know I can just use nswrapper, but that's not my point. I just want to partition, install, run, play. Interestingly, my NIC is recognized.
