Wow! the speed and the look of the new Ubuntu 7.04 is nice.  But there
is something wrong with the Wireless Network Adapter Drivers, it does
not authenticate the connection.  I get an error about Atheros
being/using an incomparable driver.

However, after long hours of configuration and figuring out the right Wireless Card=comparable chipset on wireless device, it's not longer an issue with Ubuntu 6.06.  So therefor, why would I want to deal with that issue all over again with Ubuntu 7.04?
 
The big question is; wasn't the new version suppose to fix the wireless card drivers comparability issues and make easy for wireless configuration/detection?   I am confused!

My personal opinion is that this is the biggest set back with Ubuntu,
EUs with laptops and their other devices are not going to be bother with
drivers incomparability.  This will result in going back to the early
days of MSW; when we/EUs spent hours searching and figuring out drivers
from the Internet for hardware.  Why would anybody want to choose to go
back, instead of forward?  Learn from MSW Vista, is not moving off the
shelves as Daddy had conjectured, because of the outrageous price tag
and its applications/drivers incomparability.
