    pci wifi card doesn't even get power after upgrade to lucid so i have no wifi

    My PCI wifi card does not appear to get power. No LED. I upgraded to lucid this morning and now I can not scan for networks. I wish I could go back to 9.10 because it was working great.

    I have an old Dell Inspiron 1000 laptop with a Netgear wifi adapter card wg511 v1.

    How can I get 10.04 to recognize my wifi card?

    I have installed the driver using ndiswrapper.

    $ndiswrapper -l
    netwg511 : driver installed
    device (1260:3890) present (alternate driver: prism54)

    $lspci
    02:00.0 Network controller: Intersil Corporation ISL3890 [Prism GT/Prism Duette]/ISL3886 [Prism Javelin/Prism Xbow] (rev 01)

    $ifconfig
    shows eth0 and lo but no wlan



Working...
