Hi People
Not sure if this is the right place for bug reports, but anyway.
I have a Dell Latitude D505 notebook with a
Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter (rev 04).
I recently upgraded to kubuntu 8.04, (Wifi did not work at all before this),
and I am getting a strong signal, but I am unable to scan for networks
using KWifiManager.
I reported this to KDE, and they are blaming the driver because;
root andrew-laptop:~# iwlist eth1 scanning
eth1 No scan results
Other info;
root@andrew-laptop:~# ifconfig eth1
