Ho installato Ubuntu 8.04 sul mio notebook ho dv5-1020el, inizialmente la mia scheda di rete wireless non veniva vista dal sistema e non riuscivo a collegarmi a internet con il mio modem usb, allora ho acquistato un router wireless della Dlink e mi sono collegato via Ethernet, ho potuto cosi scaricare i pacchetti necessari per poi installare i compat-wireless adatti al mio kernel e la scheda wireless adesso viene vista dal sistema, ho poi provato a configurare una connessione wireless con Network Manager ma non sono mai riuscito a collegarmi al mio access point, allora ho installato WICD e disinstallato Network Manager, solo che non so come funziona WICD, e non capisco ancore se la mia scheda wireless funziona correttamente, se qualcuno sapessa dirmi quali prove posso fare, grazie. Vi posto alcuni report:
