Comment 343 for bug 1

Wow! the speed and the look of the new Ubuntu 7.04 is nice. But there is something wrong with the Wireless Network Adapter Drivers, it does not authenticate the connection. I get an error about Atheros being/using an incomparable driver.

However, after long hours of configuration and figuring out the right Wireless Card=comparable chipset on wireless device, it's not longer an issue with Ubuntu 6.06. So therefor, why would I want to deal with that issue all over again with Ubuntu 7.04?

The big question is; wasn't the new version suppose to fix the wireless card drivers comparability issues and make easy for wireless configuration/detection? I am confused!

My personal opinion is that this is the biggest set back with Ubuntu, EUs with laptops and their other devices are not going to be bother with drivers incomparability. This will result in going back to the early days of MSW; when we/EUs spent hours searching and figuring out drivers from the Internet for hardware. Why would anybody want to choose to go back, instead of forward? Learn from MSW Vista, is not moving off the shelves as Daddy had conjectured, because of the outrageous price tag and its applications/drivers incomparability.
