    What Distro would be the best for my wireless card?

    I accept been told that it is included in the atom and it just has to be cut out- but I still can't get it to work.
    I accept a Broadcom 1350, which is a 4306 dent and listed on the Supported Broadcom devices - Linux Wireless website.
    I am annoyed of aggravating to get it to work. (I'm a absolute newbie at Linux, and I wish to apprentice it- but I am out of account for what I'm accomplishing wrong- I've approved Ndiswrapper, I accept approved 'cutting' the it out of the kernel. I think, I charge anyone appropriate next to me allowance me out. I'm the better alarmist I know- so there isn't absolutely anyone I can go for advice to)

    You could always just get a distro and download the wireless drivers, and set it up that way. I mean, if you want to keep it lean and nice.I have a Dell Inspiration with a Linksys Wireless card, I have good luck using a live CD and Connecting to my network,Sabayon Linux, Mandriva 2007 Spring, PCLinux OS and Sam Linux.You will allow manual configuration enter the SSID and WEP / WPA keys, etc.

    A distribution like Ubuntu is likely to support that wireless card out of the box. If not like mitch suggested you can always download the wireless drivers for it after you install it. Ubuntu has fantastic wireless management - one area that is done right far better than windows has managed.
