A few issues with Hardy Heron on my Dell Laptop

`PaWz · 05-13-2008, 03:28 AM

I am having several problems with my Dell Inspiron laptop. They are just compatibility issues with my hardware

First, I do not have wireless networking, and I know you have to do something in ndiswrapper to install a driver, but I know nothing more than that. (I am using a Dell 1395 wireless network card)

Secondly, I am having problems trying to install my bluetooth mouse

I type in "hcitool scan" and it detects my mouse

I then type "sudo hidd -connect 00:0C:55

5:56:3C"

Then it says "Can't get device information: Host is down"

Lastly, the audio is very quiet and hard to hear. Is there a way to install an audio driver?
