[02:21] <jay> sorry if I have wondered into the wrong room, is there anyone here who can help me with a wireless problem I am having?
[02:23] <pwnguin> i probably can't but
[02:23] <pwnguin> which model?
[02:24] <jay> dell wireless 1505n
[02:24] <jay> got ndiswrapper installed
[02:24] <pwnguin> isn't that an official supported model?
[02:24] <jay> installed the windows driver through the windows wireless driver under system, administratio
[02:24] <pwnguin> is in, you can buy it with ubuntu preinstalled
[02:25] <jay> Didn't have that option at Best Buy
[02:25] <pwnguin> err, "as in"
[02:25] <jay> It's a Dell XPS 1330
[02:25] <pwnguin> oh
[02:26] <jay> I had no problems with other Dell laptops with G wireless cards, but this N card is giving me fits to no end.
[02:27] <pwnguin> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/DellXPSM1330
[02:27] <pwnguin> same, or different?
[02:28] <pwnguin> dell also runs an ubuntu support forum that might know more about your specific problems
[02:29] <jay> same I believe
[02:30] <pwnguin> it's showing a different wifi chipset
[02:31] <jay> your right.
[02:31] <jay> What's the address for the Dell Ubuntu forum do you know?
[02:31] <pwnguin> not offhand
[02:32] <jay> I'll turn to google then. ;)
[07:30] <KDB9000> hello?
