wireless connection with ubuntu 9.10?

i posted this in the apple section, but felt here would probably be a little more appropriate after browsing the forums much more in depth..

i just successfully downloaded and installed ubuntu koala (9.10 i think...) and its a great interface. i am just having extreme difficulty trying to set up the wireless connection.

when i log back in osx, i am able to access the router and use the internet as i am doing now when i post in the forum. i am just trying to learn how to configure the wireless in ubuntu as well.

i posted in this forum instead of another one because maybe i can luck out and have someone who has successful been able to connect wirelessly on an imac, or apple laptop in ubuntu....

any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

thanks for your time.

 

If you're having problems with an Apple laptop, not an Acer Aspire One, this isn't a good place to get help. I would suggest http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=328. Also, Ubuntu wireless issues with Macs are VERY specific to the model you are using, so you need to post accurate information about the model number and the wireless chipset.
