[NBLUG/talk] Which Linux distribution do you use and why?

[Michael Tucker]

Theoretically yes. What version of ebook is it and where did you get the
first Ubuntu image that wasn't working in the first place? Did you install
it while conneted to the internet through your network card the first time?
Have you looked for a forum regarding your hardware specifically? I know
configuring network devices can be a daunting task sometimes, specifically
when windows was the original OS. Try another distribution also to see if
it has the correct drivers for your wireless card. I would look to Fedora,
Suse, or maybe CentOS. Hope this helps.
