Comment 10 for bug 714862

Marcus,

Ok, looks like the dkms package didn't install correctly and I think you might want to try 110.04, so let's focus on 11.04 release.

1. install the latest kernel image and kernel header
  sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.38-8-generic linux-headers-2.6.38-8

2. download dkms packages from the right column and install them
  (after downloaded ar3011-dkms_1.1ryu2.3_all.deb and dell-laptop-dkms_1.4_all.deb)
  sudo dpkg -i ar3011-dkms_1.1ryu2.3_all.deb dell-laptop-dkms_1.4_all.deb

3. run "dkms status" to see if there are the following info(or just paste the result here)
  dell-laptop, 1.4, 2.6.38-8-generic, x86_64: installed
  ar3011-dkms, 1.1ryu2.3, 2.6.38-8-generic, x86_64: installed

4. you don't need this step if you have the info that step 3 describes
  (paste the result of the following commands here)
  1. cat /proc/version_signature
  2. dpkg -l | grep linux- | grep ^ii
  3. ls /usr/src
