However, I am having trouble installing my USB Dongle. The driver of my dongle is a moduleDB31.TAR.GZ. I must admit, I am not the programming type nor do i claim to know anything about coding, much less knowing how to install using the command line. If anyone can please help me to understand this as well as to be able to install my dongle will be a lifesaver. Thanks a lot. BTW, the driver came with a Readme file and I can't make heads or tails with this, hope you can help me ... as follows; -------------- Release Date: 2006-01-24, ver 1.1 RTL8187 Linux driver version 1.1 --This driver supports RealTek RTL8187 Wireless LAN driver for Linux Debian3.1 kernel 2.6.13 </blockquote><div> RT8187(B,L) cards are supported in the kernel now, it might be best for you to solve the problem of running a newer version of Ubuntu rather than trying to get tarball modules to work. Why is it that only 6.06 works? </div></div>
