If you understand the philosophy of  Damn Small Linux then
perhaps you would look in the repository under System, or even the MyDSL desktop icon under System

i try to install driverloader (;inuxant) and this is whar appens:

------------------------
root@box:~# dpkg -i driverloader_2.29_i386.deb
Selecting previously deselected package driverloader.
(Reading database ... 23166 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking driverloader (from driverloader_2.29_i386.deb) ...
Removing old /usr/lib/driverloader
Setting up driverloader (2.29) ...
Linuxant DriverLoader for Wireless LAN devices, version 2.29

No pre-built modules for: Debian-3.1 linux-2.4.26 i686-SMP

Trying to automatically build the driver modules...
(this requires a C compiler and proper kernel sources to be installed)

Where is the linux source build directory that matches your running kernel?
[/lib/modules/2.4.26/build]

Building modules for kernel 2.4.26, using source directory
/lib/modules/2.4.26/build. Please wait...

ERROR: Module build failed!
Please examine the log file "/var/run/dldrconfig-buildlog.txt" to determine why.
dpkg: error processing driverloader (--install):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
driverloader
root@box:~#
------------------------

and here s the log......

------------------------
../modules/kernelcompiler.sh: gcc version 2.95.4 or similar is required to compile modules for your kernel

dunno....

to compile you need the gcc1.dsl file from the downloads section.  Once you get that file just do a mydsl-load gcc1.dsl  or mydsl-install gcc1.dsl.

Even easier, type " mydsl-load gcc1.dsl system " ,
and it should download and install automatically for you.

Here are some good tips for getting your adaptor working with ndiswrapper - < http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-274220-highlight-usr5422.html >
- especially the part about the Window$ driver upper-case/lower-case problem.

There is a dedicated prism54 USB driver at < http://jbnote.free.fr/prism54usb/ >  ... but unfortunately it can only be compiled under the 2.6 kernel.  DSL has a 2.4 kernel.
