Open a Terminal [1], in the Terminal run cd /home/richard/ ls -hAl wireless-info* there likely is a file named wireless-info.txt available. If not run tar xzf wireless-info.tar.gz after running the above command, there likely is a file named wireless-info.txt or a directory wireless-info/YOU available. Run ls -hAl wireless-info* again. Perhaps you need to run cd wireless-info/ ls -hAl wireless-info* Assumed there should be a file wireless-info.txt be available, read [2]. Open the file wireless-info.txt with an editor. Regarding [3] the default editor seems to be Gedit, so run gedit wireless-info.txt At this point I get "There seems to be a problem opening the file /home/richard/wireless-info.txt"</pre> </blockquote> THE FILE YOU OPENED HAS SOME INVALID CHARACTERS. iF YOU CONTINUE EDITING THIS FILE YOU COULD CORRUPT THE DOCUMENT. yOU COULD ALSO CHOOSE ANOTHER cHARECTER ENCODING AND TRY AGAIN.
