I'm trying both the barebones and standard. I don't know what happened but the barebones puppy didn't make it past 30 min. before i crashed it.lol. I'm on the stadard one now. This one gave me keyboard problems to start with,i fixed that. I see how long this one makes it. I still think DSL is way better.

love dsl more than redhat or knoppix.. small and has what i need.

im sure time will come and the drivers will follow.. just have to wait..

Bilal, I have a Broadcom card and I need to use the bcm5700.tar.gz extension from the system section of the repository. Load that extension in emelfm or from an xterminal. Now there should be a new menu item in the right click MyDSL menu for loading those drivers. Select that item by choosing "Initialize Broadcom 5700" from the DSL->MyDSL right click menu. Then choose the DSL->System->Net Setup->netcardconfig option. That might work for you.
