Hello,
I have a desktop PC Packard Bell 8/9 years old with a 110 GB HD, ram = 2GB, 32bits.
I tried Zlitaz mode Cdlive, it works well, I have internet with Ethernet cable, but unable to connect to WiFi, the wireless card is on USB key.
for know the hard, i make :
#tazpkg get-install usbutils
# lsusb
résultat : Guillemot Corp. HWGUm-54 [Hercules Wireless G Ultra mini Key]
after search, the chipset of this key HWGum-54 is : Realtek RTL8192su
I found the module linux-r8712u-2.6.37.tazpkg and explanations here :http://forum.slitaz.org/topic/how-to-configure-wifi-in-slitaz
I found firmware "http://cook.slitaz.org/packages/firmware-rtlwifi-20141201"
