Yes, there is now connection. Only two little questions: 1. The interface is eth1 - shouldnt it be wlan0, as iwconfig lists it when there is no wireless? also, the icon in the top menubar in Gnome is not a wireless icon, and now that I am connected its tooltip says "No network connection". The oth

Oh, BTW, I've noticed that the Thinkpad hardware may need a cold boot to operate properly. I'm not sure why this is, but sometimes if I just reboot (via System/Quit.../Reboot), the wireless can't connect, so I have to actually shut down and press the power button to start it up again. -- IBM thin

I booted with the 7.04 herd 4 live cd, and did the two things described in the fix. In both cases the wireless icon now shows in the network settings graphical tool (Gnome control center) - in 6.10 there were wired icons for both - but there are still two wired network icons in the desktop menu bar

Sorry for the delay, I thought you were actively testing the 6.06 live CD. Check bug 63989, I think this bug may be a duplicate of that. It appears that the kernel is using the wrong module for the wireless card, prism2 instead of orinoco. For the quick solution check: https://launchpad.net/dis

The output of iwconfig shows no wireless extensions for any of the interfaces on the laptop. This means that somewhere your wireless card isn't being detected as being wireless, and is why it shows up as an ethernet icon in the networking manager. -- IBM thinkpad A31p: wireless ok in 6.06, not i
