Question Finding wifi drivers


I am trying to find the WIFI drivers on my netbook, when I try to connect it scans and I get the message no wireless connections, though my Dell laptop using an USB netgear adapter connects easily.
I found the drivers on that and deleted a few and blacklisted others, I do'nt remember how I did it. Both laptops are running Linux Ubuntu10.04LTS,before the Dell laptop operating system was Windows XP and the MSI notebook was Windows7 Starter.Any advice would be gratefully received as I've tried everything.

MSI U135DX notebook
OS: Linux Ubuntu10.04 LTS
RAM: 1gb
HDD: 250gb
RF: 802.11b/g/n

I'm not sure what you're asking here. Do you want to know the correct driver for your wireless card? You should be able to get and answer if you search a little, but posting the output of
Code:
lspci -v
might help.
