Dell Wireless 1395 WLAN Mini-Card

[JustinReno]

I have a Dell laptop Inspiron 1720 that came with the Dell Wireless 1395 WLAN Mini-Card wireless card. Now, Puppy 4.0 doesn't seem to have the modules for this card, so, I went to use ndiswrapper but I couldn't successfully get the windows drivers. So now I'm stuck, has anyone ever had this problem with this card? Thank you for any help.

it didn't work for me the first-time. I tried to another linux version and it forces me to run ndiswrapper manually. It gave me errors for not having the .sys file.

So I put the whole driver directory on my usb drive and pointed it at the .inf file.

\r189136\driver\bcmwl5.inf, but keep all the other files there.

Hope this helps
