Checked that, it was already on.

It's strange, when starting  Ubuntu just before the boot screen appears the wifi light briefly comes on and then turns off again. The Bluetooth light remains on.

I think what I'll do is just wait until the next Ubuntu version and then try to install that.  Or perhaps I'll do a reinstall of Hardy but use the text based installer.  (when the Hardy live CD boots up wifi also doesn't work.)

Thanks, I'll boot back into Ubuntu and try that right now.

Cheers,
Han.
