OK,

here are some links that I found useful!

The method I used, admittedly it was on a Maverick based distro, was
to update the kernel from here:

http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ [14]

and the install the samsung-wireless package from here:

https://launchpad.net/~voria/+archive/ppa [15]

once updated you may have to blacklist the built it drivers:

sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

and add the following lines:

blacklist r8192e_pci
 _blacklist r8192se_pci_

Not tried it with natty yet, you may just have to use the voria ppa.
You may want to try updating the kernel to the oneiric or the Natty
2.6.39-rc4 (current) and add the voria ppa too. - this is a bit risky
so your system may not survive !!! ;)

There is a surprising amount of info out there as the samsung netbook
is a popular one, it's a good little machine ;)

here are some links with useful info on, in no particular order:

Hope that helps a little,

cheers

Thanks for all the ideas and help!

When I re-format the netbook, I actually think I will stick with 10,04 or 10,10 as they worked... think I will leave 11,04 mature a bit more. shame, but there we are.

Cheers again.
