[penguicon-general] yet another Ubuntu question

[LadySarah]

I know in windows activating my wifi requires two steps; activating the
wireless and then actually making it function.  Does anyone know if Ubuntu
also has two steps??  I can't seem to get it to activate and the laptop
doesn't want to play with an ethernet cable in either platform.

I tried setting everything up over the phone with John but he didn't have
Ubuntu in front of him and couldn't figure out a way to hack it from my
descriptions.  And also give John all the credit in the world because he
tried for over an hour to help me get something to play nice on my computer
and nothing ended up being willing to play.
