The eee boots DSL 4.0 from a USB stick into RAM nicely but the wifi card is not recognised :(. Drivers for Windows are available and so ndiswrapper could be used but the first hurdle is to get the card recognised.

Can anyone help please.

On DSL look at

Possible irq conflict with usb and wireless?

dmesg | grep -i irq
cat /proc/interrupts

lsmod | grep ath
lsmod | grep wlan

Then compare to that on eee
When eee boots up to easymode, press Ctrl-Alt-t
That should open a terminal, then sudo su

Type same commands and compare, maybe a different address is used or irq
