Hello,
I've recently installed Kubuntu10.10 on a laptop Acer TM660 (rather
old hardware now), running in 32b
with a Centrino chip for wireless connection but I didn't find how to
configure interfaces; in the
menu to configure the network I was able to put parameters for new
wireless connection but
surprisingly there is no option to bind connection with a specific
interface; thus, after that,
there is no mean to set up interface as it is not yet configurated;
command ifconfig -a gives:
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:c0:9f:2e:d9:bf

and content of file /etc/network/interfaces is only:

Problem is not solved if i do following instructions:
iwconfig eth1 essid <my network name>
iwconfig eth1mode Managed
iwconfig eth1 rate auto
iwconfig eth1 key <myKey>
Any suggestion(s)?? Thanks in advance
Regards
