Some time ago, I installed a dual system on my notebook hp4416s, installed XP first, and then installed Ubuntu 11.10 With wubi. (When wubi is used for installation, you need to put the Ubuntu Desktop ISO and wubi program in the same path, and the ISO file cannot contain Chinese characters)
After Ubuntu is installed, it cannot be wireless. I went back to XP, and the wireless network card switched ON and OFF was still yellow, so I couldn't do anything (turn blue ). I thought there was a problem with the driver, but I couldn't try it after a few attempts. I think the dual system should have no impact on the two systems. I thought it would take me one night to split the machine if something like spring in the switch was broken. There are too many screws to block the wireless switch, and it seems that all of them cannot be removed, and I gave up. I even removed some rubber and plastics on the book.
I can't stand the days when I have no wireless connection, so I bought a wireless LAN card with TP-link wn322g + V3. The result is that the driver is unavailable in Ubuntu. Lsusb shows that the ID of this Nic is f201: 5370. I have said on the Internet that wn322g + is the zd1211 chip. I added the ID number of this Nic to the zd1211 driver for the 3.0 kernel. The compilation and loading module won't work, install the XP driver with ndiswrapper to get the screen directly. Then it seems that this Nic in XP is a chip of rt2870. I also tried the rt2870_linux_sta driver method on the Internet. It won't work after a long time. Later, we found that the ID of this Nic could not be found in the USB. IDS file in Ubuntu.
I want to try the ndiswrapper method again today. The progress is quite smooth and the result is still not good. Later, I accidentally saw the Broadcom sta wireless driver in [system Settings> additional driver] and activated it by the way. Restart to go to XP, and the original wireless laptop is amazing.
It turns out that wubi virtualizes Ubuntu into a Windows software, which will change the hardware configuration. Here, UBUNTU disables the wireless network card of Broadcom.
At this time, I still remember the previously wireless connection in Zhaoyang E43. It is useless to install only the wireless driver, but also the power management driver to enable the wireless function. The BIOS must disable ACPI to install XP. Otherwise, a blue screen is displayed. Is this a butterfly effect? Let's talk about it.
