tempestuous, I downloaded Three Headed Dog(5.2.9) and got it up and running. rt2870sta driver picked up the adapter right away. But now I'm getting a error. Here is what the error is reporting. Error: Failed to raise wlan0 Failed command was: ifconfig wlan0 up Error returned was: ifconfig SIOCSIFFLA...

Here is the info after running the cat /proc/bus/usb/devices command.

Thanks!

Here is the dmesg.txt.gz file that was generated. If you could take a look I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks! PS Just to see if I could get it to work I downloaded the latest Lucid 5.2.8 and am getting the same results. I also tried Wary 5.1.3 and the rt3572sta driver won't even load for whateve...

Well I got the driver installed and it shows up in the network wizard now.
The problem now is when I try to scan for wireless networks it tells me there are no networks available. Any ideas what to try now? Thanks!

Thanks tempestuous,

I'll give it a try and report back with my results.

Have a good one!

Thanks 5littlejoe5,

that's the problem, the adapter is not be found or seen by Puppy. I
have tried the Wizard and even tried loading the driver but there is no
USB adapter shown in the wizard.

Trying to get this Belkin USB adapter to work with Lucid Puppy 5.2.6
I tried the Ralink 2870 with no success and also the Windows inf file
under ndiswrapper and I get a invalid driver message. Any ideas on how to

After that it went right to the Puppy desktop and the mouse and keyboard worked fine. So Puppy is up and r...

Thanks Lobster, I'll see what I can do. Funny, I had just downloaded the DSL iso before I read your post. I'm going to open the beast up and check the ram situation. It's just a extra old system I have. I'm always fighting to get on our main system with the wife and kid so I thought I would try to g...

Thanks for the input everyone. I fixed the keyboard mouse problem but the system locks up once the desktop loads. It might be a memory problem. I'm trying to get Puppy to run on a Pentium 90 with only 32 MBs of ram. It looks like the minimum is 64 MBs. Any ideas of what to try? Or am I out of luck? ...

I selected the wrong keyboard layout on my first CD boot and now I get to the puppy desktop and can't do a thing with the mouse or keyboard. How do I clear the files or settings so I can start over. All else seems to be working ok. Which keyboard do I select for the standard US one. Thanks a bunch, ...
