[Liverpool] WUBI Ubuntu Linux

[Peter Howden]

Hi

I've just installed WUBI Ubuntu linux on my (several years old) centrino 
Hi-grade laptop. Got a working installation apart from the wi-fi 
Internet connection which doesn't work. When booting into Windows I have 
to press a "hotkey" above the keyboard to switch on the wi-fi. This 
doesn't seem to work when booting into Ubuntu (the button doesn't 
illuminate as it does with windows to indicate it's switched on). I've 
tried plugging in a USB network adaptor with no luck either - lsusb 
showed the adaptor was identified etc (and the adaptor works with Ubuntu 
when plugged into my desktop). I've entered the correct router details, 
WEP password etc. Any ideas?. Thanks.

Peter
