Wireless no longer works
« on: June 06, 2007, 06:06:16 pm »
Can someone help a noobie out?

I recently tried to install the newest beta version of linuxmce. The installation failed, but more pressing to me right now is that my wireless card no longer works.

I've tried to reset the essid, key, etc., but it still won't work. Any idea why and how I can get it running again?

Thanks.

The installation failed seemingly far into the process. The installer cached both discs and installed for a while. Then it informed me that the installation failed. I don't know much more than that.

I had the same problem and I resolved it with reinstalling KnetworkManager again, since LMCE install fracks that part up.. Problem is, if only having a wireless in box, the whole install fracks up majorly.
