2.6.30 questions of bugs??

[Sean Ongley]

Bugs, I don't know if its bugs. I'm just very confused about installing
these drivers. I feel like I'm trying what you say and what the help files
and forums say, its all very confusing. Isn't there a simple command that
will work? If not, what is THE ONE command or procedure that works? Please
help me. This wireless just isn't being read and nobody in the linux
community seems to put the install procedure simply. I believe if someone
could very simply and very clearly relate the procedure for installing
something as simple as a driver, it would help newcomers to the system
tremendously.

Thanks

Sean

I have no idea what you are talking about here.  Please be more
descriptive of what the problem is, and what you are trying to do.

confused,

I'm sorry, but I doubt if anyone here is going to be able to help
you either -- at least not without more information.  Most likely
you should consult with the support resources for whatever Linux
distribution you are using.  At the very least we would have to know
what hardware you are using and whether or not your kernel is built
to include the appropriate driver (if it exists).

Hth!
