    Wireless Connection In Ubuntu

    Well I have an IBM ThinkPad R32(yeah old) but I installed Ubuntu 8.04 I think it is and it runs fine. My problem is, is that I have also a Cisco Aironet 350 Series Wireless LAN Adapter(AIR-PCM352). I apparently need drivers for this but the problem is that I: 1. Don't know where to get the proper drivers for it to work with Ubuntu. 2. Even if I got the drivers, how the hell do I install them? 3. I'm a first time user of any linux OS so bare with me, if you know how to fix my problem be very specific with instructions. I would really like to get this wireless card running.

      Oh boy, you had the same problem as me.
      You need to use the ndis wrapper.

          So would you suggest I get like Aptitude or Synaptic to help with these installs or what? Haha, I'm sorry but I have like 0 idea on what to do. I can DL the ndiswrapper-common (1.50-1ubuntu1), ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 (1.50-1ubuntu1, ndisgtk (0.8.3-1) files. Are these what I need to download?
