Hello, A few hours ago, I have installed Debian Testing on a friend's laptop. The laptop came with Windows XP, and we agreed to make a dual boot of both. Most things work in Debian. There are a few problems, but by far the biggest and most important is the fact that it does not work at *all* with wireless networks. Unfortunately, neither I nor him know almost anything about the computer. We know that it has an AMD processor, and that's about it.
The wireless network is crucial. He uses the laptop both at home and at school. At home, it is difficult for him to use a wired network because of router positions, etc. At his school there is a free Wi-fi connection which students can use, but he needs wireless to be working for that as well. I know that it is really difficult to help not knowing even what wireless card he has, but could someone at least point me in the right direction? I suspect that a driver and/or kernel module is not installed or is not being started. Thank you, Leonid Grinberg [EMAIL PROTECTED]
