Hi,
I just installed kubuntu 64 bit version on Dell inspiron 1501. It installed, but I can't establish a wireless connection. The card is recognized as Broadcom Corp Dell wireless 1390 wlan mini pci. But no wireless connection is detected. I googled and found this article: http://fosser.wikispaces.com/Ubuntu+on+Inspiron+1501
I don't know what is meant by native driver in the article. I am not all that experienced with linux and I don't know what to do or what to check for. I would appreciate any help or advice. Thanks.
