nickel,
... and best wishes for a cool yule to you too.
Check dmesg for errors after you
if there are none, check that lsmod shows the module loaded.
If all that looks good, post your lspci line for your wireless.

Thx very much for your quick answer!
I solved it. I look up my Kernel conf and there were a bunch of drivers activited, so one thing ocurred to me.
It was eth3 instead of eth0 
like i said, thax tough and happy holidays! |
