Re: [orca-list] Connecting to a wireless network with Orca and Ubuntu?

[Jeffrey Shockley <jawswizard ec rr com>]

Hi,
First, you'll want to check whether your wireless card is supported.
You can easily do this by going to Applications 
menu/System/Administration/Network. Tab to the connections table, and if 
you see Wireless connection, then if it is disabled, check the box and 
click the properties button (This is how you connect to wireless 
netwroks, BTW.)
If your wireless card is not supported, then you'll have to go find  
Windows driversdrivers for it and extract the Cab file,and some more 
things, but I forgot them.
