Lenovo T420 and Linux Mint guest
Posted: 9. Jan 2012, 16:45
Host: Windows7 Pro
Guest: Linux Mint (Ubuntu) 12
Problem:
I cannot seem to get any wireless interface in the Linux guest system.
The VirtualBox properties lists the following network interfaces:
PCnet-PCI II (Am79C970A)
PCnet-FAST III (Am79C973)
Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop (82540EM)
Intel PRO/1000 T Server (82543GC)
Intel PRO/1000 MT Server (82545EM)
Paravirtualized Network (virtio-net)
Afaik, none of these are the wireless interface. Or am I wrong? I would expect the latest Ubuntu to find the wireless adapter automatically, but it doesn't. Anyone got any hints/tips, possibly specific to this system?
