I installed Ubuntu on a partition of my MacBook Pro. Wireless connections work fine when I switch to OSX, but the wireless networks are not even detected when I boot Ubuntu. I installed Wicd as a new network manager, but I'm still having the same problem. Ubuntu works on a wired connection though.

I have searched the web for a solution... similar questions have been asked but I have not been able to find a way to fix this problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Did you try hooking your computer up to Ethernet and checking additional drivers or jockey? Just search for jockey in the dash and it will come up. – Aaron Oct 12 '12 at 0:53
