Hey, this is the first message I've ever left on PLUG, I was just waiting
for the right subject to come in on.... Anyways, thanks for letting me
eavesdrop.

I installed feisty on my hp tx 1000, the wireless didn't, and I found a
thread on the Ubuntu forums that worked for me. Apparently you can just
install the dell drivers. Here's a link with more info:

Took me about a half hour, but worked like a charm. Hope that helps.
