Install Ubuntu 7.10 to Lenovo F31A

Just bought a Lenovo F31A some days ago, the default OS is Windows Vista Home Premium, which looks nice, but I really do not like.The Effect is not very good. has a better solution about this. So I delete all the partition, and reinstall the 7.10 to my New notebook.

Everything is Ok when finish the normal installation procedure expcept the Wireless bcm4xx firmware and the sound card.For the first issue, here with a solution:

1.Download a software named bcm43xx-fwcutter_20060108-6build1_i386.deb and install it.Here http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43 you will find more details about b43.

2.Click the icon on the right above panel—Restricted Drivers, and enable the firmware for broadcom 43xx chipset family, then it will pop-up a window ask you to slect the firmware to download, pls choose the second one which is http://xeve.de/down/wl_apsta.o ,after finishing the download,ubuntu will automatically install the firmware.

For the sound card, i am still under searching a way to solve it.Hope someone can give me a hand.
