Wireless Networking - Atheros
The wireless network was correctly sensed by ubuntu, but the hardware doesn't work.
For compiling driver from source we need the package build-essential, for that simply run on terminal if you havent' already it
sudo apt-get install build-essential
First disable restricted driver from System->Administration->Hardware driver and by clicking on disable on the bottom of the form. Now we have to download the last madwifi driver source package. here the link After extracted it run in a terminal:
cd desktop/madwifi-hal* make sudo make install
Now the driver modules are installed but unloaded. We can now edit modules configuration for load it automatically at startup
sudo vim /etc/modules
On the bottom of the file we have to add this
ath_pci
Write changes and exit. Now we can reboot for unload old driver and load the newest at next start.
Audio - Alsa Drivers
We need to recompile audio driver alsa at the last available version since the audio chipset is not fully recognized by ubuntu 8.10. The on-board chipset is a Realtek ID 272.
for compiling driver from source we need the package build-essential, for that simply run on terminal
sudo apt-get install build-essential
Now we can download the last Alsa Driver source from here (tested on v. 1.0.18a) Extract it on Desktop and run in a terminal
cd desktop/cd alsa-driver-* ./configure --with-cards=hda-intel --with-oss=yes --with-sequencer=yes make sudo make install
Now we have to keep volume up from alsamixer with:
alsamixer
On next start the speaker will be disabled when you try to plug-in an headphone's jack. Perhaps internal microphone doesn't work since now.
