i manage to make the wifi work in my x32 laptop. i noticed that wifi was
working with xubuntu liveCD, so i compared different configuration files
in both systems. When I compared the output of lsmod and dmesg I noticed
two modules, orinoco and orinoco_cs loaded before eth1 was ready. So I
modprobe both and straight away the network manager detected my card and
tried to connect to my home wifi network.
I have added both modules to /etc/modules so that they are loaded on
startup.

hi
just installed latest usb-deb iso in my X32 laptop
(http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Category:X32), i dont get any wireless
device listed on ifconfig or iwconfig, this worked out of the box with
plain ubuntu. Is there any module I need to force puredyne to load in
order to make this work? Maybe this is one of those non free drivers
that some distros dont like to distribute?
i see couple of other weird things like with the sleep (never seems to
wake up), i will report as i explore it.
thanks
enrike
