I installed my DSlin on a usb stick, and it boots no problem, I can access the web via my NIC card to my router, I have a intel 2200bg.

How can I ndiswrapper the inf file. I copied it to the usb drive, and can see it in the file manager, I use the path to its location, but havn't been able to get it to work.

New user....less than 24 hrs

thanks

Basically, I'm stuck on the part of my hardware even being detected my ndiswrapper, yet it says it's installed. To do that, right click the desktop>system>control panel .. A list of buttons will come up. Select ndiswrapper, and tell it the location of your drivers. FOr example, mine is:

/mnt/sda1/g120.inf

Or, the manual way to do it, is to go to the terminal and type ndiswrapper -i /mnt/sda1/g120.inf  .. Then do a ndiswrapper -l and see what it tells ya...

If it's USB, then it won't work, cause I'm stuck , and I don't get why it won't get detected by ndiswrapper.

ndiswrapper will not work with all wireless card chipsets. There is a list of what works on the ndiswrapper site. They update frequently and add more cards. Sometimes it's better to use the version of the driver that they have in their repository than to use the one that comes on your Windows compatible CD.
