2. cd /tmp; tar -xvzf \[459\]ar813x-linux-v1.0.0.9.tar.gz
[ignore gzip errors]
$ make
$ sudo make install
[ignore error permissions]
3. $ sudo modprobe atl1e
4. should have eth0 (ifconfig -a) - wired ethernet. hook cable , ip addr.
wlan0 up:
5. go administration > software sources > updates , check off "unsupported updates (jaunty-backports)", .
6. $ sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-jaunty
