Cannot install my Linksys AE1000 USB Wireless Adapters

Post by vivi.hot »

Ok, so I recently installed Linux Mint and I've noticed that my Linksys AE1000 doesn't work with Linux. I've read a few posts about this, but I don't find the solution to my problem. I read this instructions http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?p=1353558 and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1507793 I don't manage to make it work. When I did the first thing, this is what appeared:

bmbp@BMBP-Linux ~ $ sudo tail -f /var/log/messages
[sudo] password for bmbp:
Dec 17 18:04:45 BMBP-Linux kernel: [ 9243.998317] lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions

Dec 17 18:55:11 BMBP-Linux sudo: pam_sm_authenticate: username = [bmbp]

I have connected and disconnected my adapter, but it never shows that it is a Linksys.

And this is what happens when I write Isusb

bmbp@BMBP-Linux ~ $ Isusb
No command 'Isusb' found, did you mean:
Command 'lsusb' from package 'usbutils' (main)
Isusb: command not found

look at sudo ifconfig ra0 up

bmbp@BMBP-Linux ~ $ sudo ifconfig ra0 up
[sudo] password for bmbp:
ra0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device


At all times I have the adapter connected to the PC and it doesn't recognize it. I need help, please. If it helps I have Linux Mint 10, 32 bits, GNOME version :S
