http://forums.fedoraforum.org – I have installed fedora 17 (Beefy Miracle) 64 Bit version on my laptop Lenovo ThinkPad Edge series model no. E430 (3254-D9Q). After installation I found wireless network settings not enabled. I would like to know what's the cause since mostly all the drivers are automatically installed. I tried the installation with Ubuntu also and wireless is not enabled in that too.. I have also checked with the Lenovo support site for drivers but I was not able to find drivers. Kindly help how to troubleshoot the issue in fedora and how to install wireless(Wi-Fi) drivers. (HowTos)

The Lenovo Thinpad Edge 13 is a notebook that is powered by AMD Turion Neo X2. If you need the drivers for this notebook, you came to the right place. If you need more information and review regarding to this notebook, please visit my page.

My wireless works fine when it IS enabled. But it needs to be enabled at every startup, rather than just being automatically enabled from the beginning of the session. I'm running a Lenovo X121e, and have installed Xubuntu 11.10 onto it.

Any ideas on how to make it so it starts as enabled automatically?

Sorry, I know there are dozens of threads titled "no proprietary drivers are in use on this system," but none of them answered my question. Most of them centered around nVidia drivers.

I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 on an Acer Aspire AM3970. I can't for the life of me get the wireless to work.
