Is it the linux that does not work or the computer? Are you
wanting to try again with that or a different computer? I know you
said it was another story, but I was wondering if we did anything
bad.
No, you guys did fine....my statement was only half correct -- it
works (I'm excited - my fist look @ Linux, want to see more....if
only...<G>) , but I can't get it to log on to my home wireless
system -- but it did right away at the instalfest.....
Probably some simple, small thing, but I am not having any luck
fixing it....got past all the "keyring" issues I think ---
I "think" I have some problem with "device
recognition" (it says my output should be 'claimed', unclaimed,
enabled, or disabled, but I get NONE of those...), but how could that be
if it worked? (Wireless troubleshooting, 5.2.2),
It does not look like it says it should, but it worked at
first......what's with that? what's the diff 'twixt their wireless
system and mine other than password?
I'm trying to follow the troubleshooting guide, but what comes up may
as well be Greek...<G>...and I do not read nor comprehend
Greek.....

What is different about YOUR router is the specific passphrase it was set to use. Only yours uses that phrase for securing wireless communications. Even another router identical to yours in every way would only use the same passphrase if the user had set it up using the same type of security and the same passphrase.
What do I need to know to connect to ANY wireless system........my laptop
can at a lot of different places, using different routers,
etc.......
If you
wanted to being both to the installfest, I am sure we could make it
work. Otherwise the choices are for someone to come to your home or
try supporting you by this kind of email exchange (much
harder).
yea, we could try that. I don't use skype and my only phone is a cell phone though so using a lot of minutes is not desireable. Even if I were to set up skype, you would have to be using it on a different computer since we would be changing the wireless connection data for the wireless machine. It might work if that machine were also connected via a wire to the router, but if we ended up changing something on the router it would likely have to be reset and we would lose the skype connection.
BTW, I don't know what part of the valley you live in so do not know if getting together would be reasonable. I am basically in Apache Junction.
