Try this driver:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=45601

Before you use it. Uninstall any other drivers you have installed.
Xorgwizard will be confused if it finds more than one ATI video card driver.
Will not be able to decide which one to use.

hello,

i have tested the driver, after installation, theme working, but when i clic on the menu on the "ATI control center" puppy linix go to Command line and i hav this message (mv: target "ATI_MOBILITY_RADEONDELL1905FP" is not a directory) and if i make the command "atinspect", i have a black sceen, i need reboot.

EDIT:

Ah and when the driver is installed, that's make bug my Wifi card, the Pwireless2 said Connected and ip adress acquired but cannot connect on internet (Before the ati driver thats working)
EDIT2: i can connect a non securised wifi but my WEP protected wifi,i cannot connect, if i connect the non securised, it's conneting with no problem, but with securised wifi, is not possible after ATI driver installed.

I have test with launching GLEST, thats make go to X

Now, i have 2 reason to hate ATI graphics card. if i will install puppy linux, i buy a pc with Nvidia card, linux ant ATI is not a good things.
