However, in the past two week I have installed hardy heron on my laptop (Dell Inspiron E1705) and desktop (dual opteron) and both work (generic on laptop and amd64 on desktop) except for wifi on the laptop which is probably a driver problem with the intel wifi hardware on the laptop. I can now even get adobe flash to work with firefox on the amd64 system! Currently I am writing a python program (using pyserial) to control your setting circle decoder card.

I think when I tried this with the beta, I was using a V1 and not a V4. Dave If you have a V4 of the WUSB54G, here’s a link to a howto in the Ubuntu Forums that supposedly works for Hardy Heron:

I've got a WUSB54G V1 and when 8.04 got it's official release I thought I'd give it a try. Boy was that a mistake. Now the wireless doesn't work at all. It can enable the adapter with ndiswrapper, it can see my wireless network (WPA encryted) and will try to connect to it and then........insert password prompt again...........insert password prompt. Have given up now and gone back to 7.10. Good luck with finding a solution! I followed your instructions originally when I made the move to Ubuntu 7.10 from Windows and they worked a treat.
