    Isn't airport a wireless AP? If it is, you don't have to install it on your Linux OS. The only thing you require, your OS, to detect, is your wireless network card. If it's not detecting it, it means the drivers for it are not in the kernel. What wireless card are you using?

    When I installed YDL6.1 I got bcm43xx errors and solved the problem by going here: b43 - Linux Wireless
