You first must know more info about the wireless. Enter these commands and post the output.

lsusb
lsusb -v

EDIT: You should run the commands as root.

OK, here is the needed info:

 Bus 002 Device 003: ID 07d1:3c03 D-Link System

Then looking under that device in the -v output, I find this:

  iManufacturer           1 Ralink
  iProduct                2 802.11 bg WLAN

It doesn't identify the chipset, but a Google of 07d1:3c03 tells me it is the rt73 chipset. That would use the rt2x00 driver module. Here's the website.

Main Page - Rt2x00Wiki

Depending on your kernel, it may already be installed and loaded. Run this command and look for a rt driver in the output.

Madriva Kernel laptop_2.6.22.18-1 (86-64)
but when I boot with kernel desktop 2.6.22.18-1 while DLink USB DWL-G122 Wireless is Plugged on; it halt and died (not response)
Suggest me please.

Since I don't see the module being loaded, you could first try and load it with the modprobe command. I'm not sure of the exact module, but you can try both rt2x00 and the rt73. I would read through the instructions on the web site. Maybe even download and install the latest version.
