The Dell Inspiron 1526 was too inexpensive for the power to pass up.. but I did not want to run Windows on it, and I didn't want to run Ubuntu
(nothing against it, just not my cup of tea). I also didn't want to force my favorite linux (Slackware) to work on it, since this was to be used for everyday work.

PCLinuxOS seemed to offer exactly what I wanted.

I installed it and it just worked. That is, except the wireless. If there was anything that I would have be an issue, it is the wireless - since there are so many ways to hack that to work.

Step-by-Step (as root, to avoid having to sudo every time):

1) echo -e 'blacklist bcm43xx\nblacklist wl' | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist

2) wget ftp://ftp.us.dell.com/network/R174291.exe

3) mkdir bcm-drivers

4) cd bcm-drivers

5) unzip ../R174291.exe

6) ndiswrapper -i bcmwl5.inf

7) depmod -a

modprobe ndiswrapper

9) echo 'ndiswrapper' | sudo tee -a /etc/module

10) Click Control Center -> Network -> Set up a new network interface -> Wireless

11) Follow the prompts, and use the Broadcom driver that now shows up (or should)

12) You should be taken through the process of configuring the wireless network.

13) In your terminal window, as root, type: ndiswrapper -ma

All done.
