Bug Description

There is an endless loop in desktop help. In trouble shooting a wireless driver there are several references to "return to the drivers page," if I was successful in locating my driver. When the link is pressed, I am returned to the troubleshooting page and left to repeat the same instructions. Where is this "Device Drivers" page?

I'm using Ubuntu 11. Most recent. Just downloaded yesterday.
