Depends on the chipset.

The ralink drivers can be found at www.serialmonkey.com
I can not confirm if the Belkin really uses the zydas chipset.

I use knoppix and ndiswrapper without problems on an old Dell using BLKWGUXP.sys and
BLKWGU.inf.

I am using knoppix 5.1 CD. There could be a difference between the two versions.
