[Bug 578970] Re: Jockey user experience nightmare for installation of Ubuntu on machines requiring b43 and b43-legacy wireless driver

bug(s), such as the need to connect to the Internet some other way and
run the script to work b43-fwcutter package or ndiswrapper or bmcwl
sources". I would be glad if you could describe the exact steps that you
followed to get your wireless card to work."
Alberto, i really appreciate the patient and generous response you gave
to my heartfelt cry for competent jockey wifi driver installation
functionality. Here is what I am doing to try to contribute to this
effort.
I and a group from Ubuntu Beginners Team are reviving the Wifix project,
which is roughly similar to Jockey (except only focused on Wifi
drivers). We hope to accumulate, and maintain a database of wifi
adaptors and corresponding drivers and publish it for everyone to use.
We hope that Jockey will make use of the resources we provide. We
definitely will be studying Jockey to learn all we can and provide
whatever patches and code we can help out with.
Please feel free to participate in the Wifix project as we contribute to
Jockey also. We are located at: https://launchpad.net/wifix
