Hi, I am using 8.04 and I got my wireless (BCM4312 rev 01 on HP dv6000 laptop) working perfectly with ndiswrapper following this very comprehensive guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wi...eisty_No-Fluff. For a few days it ran perfectly - when I was plugged in with my wireless card on it used the wired connection, I could turn on/off my wireless or restart my laptop and the wireless would be fine etc.
But yesterday, for no apparent reason, when I booted into Ubuntu the wireless capability wasn't even present in the network manager. (it wasn't just greyed out, it wasn't even there) iwconfig said something like "no wireless detected" for both lo and eth0 too. Is this a common problem? Will I be forced to reinstall my drivers every few days?
