I have my doubts that this is possible, but here's the story: I have a Lenovo S10-3 netbook with the proprietary wireless driver installed.

My wireless card in my Acer Aspire 7551G shows wireless networks in range but wont connect to any of them. I am running an Atheros AR928x Wireless network card (windows reports it as a AR5b93). Also as a side note, whenever i turn on my computer, my wireless is disabled.

I have a fresh installation on my Lenovo laptop Y470, which has a Intel Centrino Wireless-N 1000 network controller. Now the problem is that I can't access my wifi router under ubuntu, but it's ok under win7.

First I'm very sure that both my hardware switch and soft switch are on.

Also minimizing and mximizing windows takes long. Switching between the windows too takes long. Now I can't see the cursor while typing this post.
