最早家中装修时没有考虑到每个房间都要布网线的问题，导致现在我的卧室里只能使用无线网卡上网。
这2天心血来潮把家里唯一的一台用作Desktop的台式机改装了Ubuntu 10.04，无线网卡的驱动就成了一个问题，下午google了半天终于搞定了！
使用ndiswrapper软件可以直接在Linux上利用Windows上的无线网卡驱动，我们可以从Ubuntu的官网上下载到该软件包;包括三个部分:
分别安装以上三个软件包后，主菜单System->Administration菜单中会出现Windows Wireless Drivers的选项:
因为我们使用的DWA 130 USB无线网卡采用的是RTL8192U的芯片，所以我们还需要下载Windows版的RTL8192U驱动软件，注意目前ndiswrapper软件似乎默认只支持Windows XP版的驱动，如果你下载的是Windows 7/Vista版的驱动可能会无法正常工作。下载到的驱动一般是exe可执行文件的形式，我们就需要在Windows上执行该exe文件，尝试将驱动安装软件的目录解压出来:

之后需要完成对驱动信息文件*.ini的配置：
gksu /usr/sbin/ndisgtk 点击Install New Driver出现选择以上ini信息文件的对话框:
全部完成后，一般Ubuntu就能正确识别该无线网卡设备了，如仍无法识别可以尝试拔插或重启再试；点击Configure Network进一步配置无线连接后，就可以看到环境周围了可用无线连接了:
