Southern lady,

By any chance can you recomend a wireless card that will be recognized by Ubuntu or Kbuntu? out of the box - and it will just work??

I got Linux books and Ubuntu books from the library and tried to understand the info - but my brain just can't get it. I also looked at the websites for them and the linux forums but not a clear cut list of Best ones to try.

My son knows the older Linux stuff but not the grub and he uses a Mac now anyway.

The card I have now is a dlink 520 rev E

I'd love to use the Linux - I have both Ub & Kb on my extra HD and XP is on my main drive

I'd like to figure out how to change the way they are listed at start up Ubuntu is first so it's the default- if I'm not there to goo thru the list to XP - I have to shut down Ub and restart to get XP.

But if i get a wireless card that simply works for the Linux then that wouldn't be such an isssue.

I wish I could...unfortunately, the only way I had linux online was thru a wired router/modem and it was my server at the time. Liz
