Hi all.. good news! It seems that all i needed to do was update the
bios. Now it is all working great. I updated bios within windows xp.
Thank you for your help, and sorry I didn't think of this earlier.

+ UPDATE: make sure the bios is up to date, I had these problems as i was
+ running an old version of th bios.

The NB100 came pre-installed with ubuntu and is an ubuntu certified
netbook, but it does not work properly with ubuntu 11.10 i386. To load
the live cd "acpi=off" needs to be added to the boot options and grub
default command once setup for it to load.
The wifi card is recognised by lspci (see below) but the network-
manager (network selection tab) does not display any wireless networks.
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x / AR542x
Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01)
I've plugged in a wifi dongle and updated to the latest kernel
(3.0.0-14) but it is still not working. Nothing came up in jockey when
searching for additional drivers.
The battery icon is also missing although this has already been reported
somewhere on the internet.
