I've just swapped my base os from xp to ubuntu having recently (re)joined the linux community but I seem to have hit the same snag, i.e. wired connection works fine, wireless doesn't, I've re-run the config and manually set vmnet0 to wlan0 but I just don't get any traffic on the vmnet0 adapter.

I've tried leaving vmnet0 as eth0 and configuring vmnet2 as wlan0 but still nothing.

I've downloaded and applied the patch but still no traffic at all.

Are there any updates to the patch for vmware 6.0.4 on Linux 2.6.24(-19-generic)?

Do these patches normally get included in the full releases and if so how long does that normally take?
