Ubuntu 9.10 on Lenovo g450

For almost 25 months I was not even touching a Linux box. When I got a Lenovo g450 laptop at work, I thought of trying GNU on this box. I am always inclined for Debian. So I choose to try Ubuntu latest version Ubuntu 9.10 - the Karmic Koala - released in October 2009. Installation was very simple. The only hardware that was not detected by default was Wireless Lan card.

03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN (rev 01)

I ran System -> Administration -> Hardware drivers. That detected the correct driver for the wireless lan card.

Once again I am back to the Unix/Linux world. The only issue I am facing is that WPA is not supported in the Linux driver.
