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/

and the install the samsung-wireless package from here:

https://launchpad.net/~voria/+archive/ppa

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
