I would like to have Linux also on my notebook but currently just Windows have drivers for my wireless network card. I've tried Mandriva 2008.1 and it was looking to load drivers from windows partition but with no success Crying or Very Sad

Crying or Very Sad

. Ubuntu also doesn't have drivers for it and i don't have time to search for them on internet, like I'm doing currently for my HP1018 printer(drivers here). I'm waiting until next Ubuntu 8.10, maybe there are some new drivers with it and maybe they solve also the problem with lid closing(when i close the lid and then reopen it the system get blocked, nor consoles works).
Also if I have license(OEM) for Windows changing it working for a Linux with lack of drivers doesn't worth. Still waiting for the proper Linux to appear and solve my problems, else maybe i have to build it from scratch Razz

(Broadcom 802.11a/b/g WLAN - i don't know more details about network card)
I was looking for drivers an i think i found some here.
