How are you connecting your notebook to the internet?
A great deal of what are referred to as "hotspots" use 3G or 4G wireless connections to cell towers and 802.11 wifi for clients to connect.
if you're plugging in with an ethernet cable, you should have the necessary hardware to connect at least one wifi client, but either way, I don't know whether any current release Linux distribution has a simple turnkey setup for this. I'd wager Ubuntu would have it as easy as anyone, but I would probably check the Ubuntu forums. If you're trying to connect to the internet and serve as a wifi hotspot with your one built-in adapter, it's just not going to work for you, as far as I am aware.

SoQtCursor::CustomCursor(3) SoQt SoQtCursor::CustomCursor(3)
NAME
SoQtCursor::CustomCursor -
The SoQtCursor::CustomCursor class is used to specify bitmap data for SoQtCursor custom cursors.
SYNOPSIS
Public Attributes
SbVec2s dim
SbVec2s hotspot
unsigned char * bitmap
unsigned char * mask
Detailed Description
The SoQtCursor::CustomCursor class is used to specify bitmap data for SoQtCursor custom cursors.
Member Data Documentation
SbVec2s SoQtCursor::CustomCursor::dim Size of cursor data. Can be anything from 1 pixel wide and high, up to maximum 32 pixels in each
dimension.
SbVec2s SoQtCursor::CustomCursor::hotspot Position of cursor hotspot, ie the pixel of the cursor which is considered to be the 'pick point'
when interacting with the canvas or widgets.
The hotspot position should be specified relative to the uppermost, leftmost corner (which is position <0, 0>).
unsigned char * SoQtCursor::CustomCursor::bitmap The size of the array of bitmap data should be equal to (width+7)/8*height, as each cursor
pixel is specified with just two bits, one in the bitmap array, one in the mask array.
The bitmap and mask bits should be laid out as follows:
B=1 and M=1 == black
B=0 and M=1 == white
B=0 and M=0 == transparency
B=1 and M=0 will give undefined results for some platforms, so avoid.
unsigned char * SoQtCursor::CustomCursor::mask See doc of SoQtCursor::CustomCursor::bitmap.
