eeepc 1008ha

here is my five cents for today...eeepc 1008ha comes with an atheros chipset...works right out of the box.

How did you get wireless working out of the box?

I was able to get my backtrack 4 pre final installed today successfully on an SD card and I cannot get wireless to work.


It doesn't seem that I have any devices defined... I had linux mint booting off the hard drive and on there I had to compile AR813 driver manually to get wireless running, however on here I tried that and was receiving compile errors (i can post more details if needed).

If you could provide me some feedback or a finger in the right direction as to how you get everything working out of the box I would appreciate it greatly.

:-)

Hope you are enjoying your 1008ha as much as I am.

[edit]

I made a simple mistake not realizing I could just start wicd manager and all is well on the home front!

Sorry for asking a silly question.

Curious if anyone else has put backtrack on the 1008ha. I'm thinking about getting one.
