Glad that you're liking Slax. :)

forum is right--you will most likely need to recompile. To be a little more helpful, here's a wireless driver page link--you should find the driver for Linux 2.6+ underneath the two Windows ones in a gunzipped tarball format.

I believe that if you have the development module in your Slax build, you can just cd into your source directory once you have untarred (decompressed) it, then just do make && make install as root--in most cases, this works. Configuring the driver and getting it up with wpa_supplicant and modprobe, for instance, is up to you from there.

Hope this helps.
