WiFi card Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG

[far_east]

I'm really surprised that you are having trouble with this card, or
your sound card;
Intel hardware is the best supported out there. Indeed, when I went
shopping for a
laptop last year, I insisted that it have this card so that I could
use Kubuntu on it.
It's difficult to diagnose your problem with some greater degree of
specificity--why not
stop by the IRC channel #kubuntu on freenode.net and give some more
details--this and the
sound card issue can surely worked out.
