by "the wireless detector on the desktop", do you mean the google
gadget? That won't show anything until you connect to a wifi network
(i think). Are you connected to a wireless network? What does the
network mananger icon in the top panel (top right corner of your
screen) say?

Here's another command line to try:

sudo iwconfig

it should show the status of your wireless card.
