Robby S asked:

I have the Ultimate Edition of Ubuntu installed to my laptop, which means pretty much everything works with it. However, I haven’t been able to get the Wireless Internet to work. I have a Linksys external wireless card. The Ultimate edition comes with several popular wireless detection programs and I’ve used all of them, but so far no good. Internet works fine when I plug directly in with ethernet.
Any suggestions? I’ll provide updates as I try what you guys think. Thanks!

daarcher_utep asked:

I want to run on windows but want the programming benefits that the terminal gives, i don’t really even need gnome. Cygwin does not work as well as I need it to but I am a moron so I might be doing something wrong but don’t know where, but thats not my question. Anyway is there a way to run at least the terminal in windows?

*Cygwin likes to give my my two word windows username which has a space but that is a no no in linux.
