      I actually already gave you step-by-step instructions. Just follow them exactly, and your wireless should work.

          Xubuntu is a lightweight version of Ubuntu. Ubuntu should have built-in support for your wireless, so then Xubuntu should to. You shouldn't have to install anything extra.

          Post the output of these commands (you can copy/paste them):

          Code:
          dmesg | grep firmware
          Code:
          lsmod
          Code:
          iwconfig

                  It shouldn't be so hard. I think you are expecting it to be hard, so therefore it is.

                  You had to learn how to use Windows, so you will now need to learn how to use Linux. Don't give up so easily.
