Thread: No wireless on Asus Eee PC 1005 HA

hello,

i've had computer month , modified dual boot in zenwalk along windows, couldn't ethernet work in zen. when researching problem, came across website:

http://www.jfwhome.com/2009/08/06/pe...omment-page-1/

, decided try it, wiped zen off hard drive , installed jaunty. made way wireless connection (ethernet works - yay!) there no sign of life on wireless side. installed jaunty backports says on website , when check on synaptic package manager, there green boxes next to:

linux-backports-modules-jaunty /the installed version 2.6.28.15.20, latest version.

installed is:

linux-backports-modules-jaunty-generic /the installed version same above latest.

there no bars on wireless , when right click on network manager, wireless enabled along networking. when go edit connections , click on wireless tab, there no list of available networks though have router next computer , ther e 9 other networks seen when run windows (or when used run zenwalk).

ironically, zenwalk's network manager see networks straight out of box installation (but no ethernet).

i'm not sure do. tried click on "add" , give network name , other pertinent facts killed ethernet , had reinstall working again. i'm being more patient , cautious time. need know start. try wireless going have both ethernet , wireless. if can't, i'll have go zen because need wireless more need ethernet. of course, without both, still have use windows time time , i'm trying move away so, nice linux installation both work. ideas welcome , in advance.

bump! me too! minus zen part...
