I’m using Ubuntu right now. Again. This is the third time I have installed Ubuntu and the second time I’ve actually had the wireless working. I noticed that the Cisco Clean Agent software required for wifi at my university wasn’t required if you’re on Linux, so I figured Ubuntu was my last shot short of buying a new computer. ([info]firesign3000 reports that it was probably my sucky processor that was keeping SP2 from being usable.) Amazingly, I managed to get Feisty Fawn installed with few problems; it probably helps that I did a wired connection to my router during the installation process, so I was able to get the utilities needed for my wireless to work.

For right now I’m planning on using it full-time, but if I get annoyed with it, I will probably boot into Windows at home and Linux at school. I guess. I dunno. I want to get Wine working too but I know very little about it. Also, for some reason my Firefox settings didn’t port over, so I need to move those; I also need to make sure I have read/write access to my Windows partition, since most of my stuff is over there anyway.
