Damn Small Linux and wireless connection   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #28 of 48 |
Hello all,
I have been playing around with DSL(Damn Small Linux) on my laptop
and cannot seem to get the wireless connection to work. I have tried a
few different things but nothing is doing. Anyone have some help? It
is supposed to work natively, automatically but the wireless is not
turned out when I am in linux (the little green light is not on) how
do I turn on the wireless within linux? Ahh, help. The DSL forums and
wikis offer little help.

A few specs:

Dell Inspiron 6000
Netgear WGT624 wireless router
Intel Pro/Wireless 2915ABG

Thanks for the info Jeff, I think I may need to move to a different kernel or even away from Damn Small Linux. It still is not working....
