[NC10] Changing Wifi card didn't work

Post by Maike05 »

Hi, as you maybe read, i've some problem getting my wifi card working on jaunty.

So I was wondering whether it was the card that was broken, so I bought a new one: Intel 3945ABG, it is fully compatible with my laptop ASUS a7sv but won't be detected with the samsung !

It doesn't appears with lspci !!

What should I do ?

You don't give us much info to go on :)

What kind of device is this? Last time I checked, my nc10 did not have a pcmcia slot. Is that a usb dongle? Or did you replace the existing pci card?

Whats wrong with wtheros? it _should_ work out of the box... but then again... ubunru is known for randomly breaking stuff that worked in previous versions :O

Hi guys,

So I changed the existing mini pci card that is by default in it.
Then, it doesn't appears with lspci..

Is that the bios that makes that ? I mean, samsung may have introduce some kind of protection to avoid users to change their config? Is it possible ?

Can I force ubuntu to detect it ?
