I tried to install Ubuntu 12.04 using the Xubuntu alternate CD and installing a textbased installation. After that I did
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
and a reboot.

And it gave me an Ubuntu 12.04 without pae kernel. But the network manager didn't work. Both WIFI and Wired didn't work. I had to install wicd to get an wired internet connection. The WIFI adapter isn't seen by this xubuntu non pae kernel. Even
sudo lshw
doesn't show the pcmcia wifi adapter. (and it's working in Windows XP though)

Now I'm reinstalling ubuntu 10.04 LTS which was all working fine.

Later on I will try the iso made by Luiz. Thanks for that Luiz.
