Here is the WLAN installation steps I followed in 
Hardy/Samsung-NC20. I copied it from another forum. It worked 
with Ubuntu 8.04, Hardy Heron.  You should connect to a LAN 
before this. First under System/Administration/HardwareDrivers, 
disable both  the Atheros HAL and the Atheros wireless thing and 
then reboot. Then

sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude install build-essential subversion
cd ~
mkdir madwifi
cd madwifi
svn co https://217.24.1.142/madwifi/branches/madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6
cd madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6
make
sudo make install
sudo gedit /etc/modules
# type "ath_pci" without quotes to the end of the file. Save and 
close.
sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
# type "ndiswrapper" without quotes to the end of the file. Save 
and close.

Now you can reboot and it should work. On the system tray you can 
choose your WLAN and enter your password. Remember to delete the 
directory madwifi in your home folder Places>Home Folder if 
everything is fine. May be you will have to do it again after 
kernel update.
