I do not think those errors have anything to do with my current situation there are about 30 of those error messages and I only tailed 6 ---- Original Message Follows -----
I ventured into the install and got to here:

Sorry about the tardy response I got dragged away. The Wireless device is a broadcom b-g The howto is here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Acer5021WLMi_Amd64?action=show&redirect=WiFi
I searched synaptic and found all the gcc/cpp already to install. although it does not state amd 64 the install media was an amd 64 installer. I will go ahead and try to install the packages I have found

Hi All I am trying to follow a howto but have so far not been able to find
gcc-4.4-base_3.4.4-6ubuntu8_amd64.deb I googled it and returned a negative result. maybe it is a typo???
What wireless card are you trying to run?
Where is your howto?
I would say that you are better off using apt or aptitude rather than an exact version of package but not sure without seeing your how to.

If you want to use WPA you will also need to install wpa_supplicant. Otherwise hopefully it will work! There is another way (download 2.6.17 test version) to do it if ndiswrapper doesn't work but try that first.
