Thank you both djemos and thenktor for your helpful replies! It really saved the day! I was just about to say, you are correct thenktor - I also found a thread on the Ubuntu forums covering the same driver issue: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1717623&page=4

I've only recently switched to Linux from Windows, and I must say, I really love Salix! It is fast and very convenient to use. Unfortunately, I do have just one problem to an otherwise perfect OS.

It's a small world after all. Well, you were right: after trying out Salix, I've decided to stick with it as I ...
