Ubuntu (Warty) had the IPW2200 onboard. Hoary, does have it also. And
My R51's wireless adapter is Intel PRO/Wireless 2200. Everything works
fine in VL SOHO 5 on my R51 ThinkPad but the wireless adapter.
Currently, I replaced VL SOHO 5 with Ubuntu Hoary on my laptop. But as
VL is Slackware based it's considerably faster than Ubuntu. That's why
I wanted to install VL SOHO on my notebook...<br>
