I have the same wireless network adapter in my Acer One netbook. I ended up using the madwifi drivers and they work perfectly. Just follow these instructions and all should be well:
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install build-essential wget ‘http://snapshots.madwifi.org/madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6- current.tar.gz’ tar zxvf madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6-current.tar.gz cd madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6-[tab] make clean make sudo make install sudo reboot The only problem I came across is when I did updates, I lost my wireless. To fix that problem, I just re-entered the last 5 lines in my terminal and I had my wireless back. It is worth a try. It is a real pain that there are no linux drivers for this wireless card. Fortunately there are a lot of people in the linux community who find workarounds for almost everything. I am a Linux newbie and with all the help online, I am able to try out and use almost any linux distro. Keep up the good work.
