I love debian. I guess we all do here. Recently, thoguh, I had to switch to Kubuntu =only= because wireless on my laptop JUST WORKED.
I have an HP zt3000 with one of those Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG wireless cards built in. It has been horrible to try to get working despite any instructions found on the Internet. The instruction on the site for this (http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net/) was tricky as it only focused on getting that one piece working and not networking as a whole. DistroWatch (http://distrowatch.com/) has had ubuntu at the top of their list going back to 2005 - its ashame when I know that debian is really the heart and soul of dopey ubuntu. Im sure debian would shoot to the top of the list if a few more things (like wireless) "just worked" like it does with my Kbuntu. Couldn't someone work on this problem for debian - or talk to the ubuntu people to get a copy to be included in the next release and apt sources? Somethings I don't mind figuring out and there is a great sense of accomplishment; but getting wireless working is not one of them. ~david (and many other debian users I talk to) ____________________________________________________________________________________Be a better Heartthrob.
