Bug Description

Hello,

I am new at Ubuntu 8.10, I am trying to fix my wireless connection so I thought I would get auto-ndiswrapper, but here is what i get. It is likely I have no idea what I am doing but I thought I would report this just in case.

It seems that you have an intel wireless card. intel provides linux drivers, therefor you do not need to use ndiswrapper nor our program. ubuntu 8.10 should support your wireless card by default. Check the ubuntu forums or google for it. I personally have little experience with ubuntu myself, so i dont know how to help there.
