Aircrack Driver Rtl8187_wireless
This is the USB driver for the RealTek RTL8187 Wireless adapter. Check your hardware before you install this driver as there are a number of versions for this adapter.
Pegatron Motherboard Drivers Ipm41-d3. This is the exact way to get this card to work! It is short and easy. The links didn't work for me to down load them right form the command line but get a working connection copy and past the links in the url download the files. Unzip and install them when necessary as fallows in the instructions and wammo you should have it. If you need any assistance with the command line commands to install them just let me know and i will try to help you but fallow this exactly up until the first reboot!

Hey, I really appreciate the response on your other post sending me to here. I never did realize there could be a native Linux driver when so many were using ndiswrapper.
You've got to excuse my Fedora 9 x86_64. I see the directions for Gentoo worked on Ubuntu as well, so it should make no difference if I'm using Fedora. The module succesfully compiled with the directions and loaded into the kernel. Here's what I did: [chris@localhost Desktop]$ /sbin/lsusb Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0781:5151 SanDisk Corp. Cruzer Micro 256/512MB Flash Drive Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0bda:8189 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.
RTL8187B Wireless 802.11g 54Mbps Network Adapter Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 002: ID 046d:c00e Logitech, Inc. M-BJ58/M-BJ69 Optical Wheel Mouse Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub [chris@localhost Desktop]$ This is after rebooting. Well I'm glad i helped you see at least something. Thats great Ya a little while after I posted that I was doing something else and I noticed that I had the mac80211 loaded. The only place which said I even had that driver loaded was airdriver-ng. I got to thinking about what that site had said, and go_beep_your_self had also pointed that out with a highlighter so to speek.I will investigate some more Here in the next few days.
Real quickly I tried to unload mac80211 with airdriver-ng and black list it but when I reboot it goes back to using it. For some reason my internet was down so i couldn't unload and install the stack that went with airdriver, but now my net is back up.When I get home I will try and uninstall the mac80211 stack and install the ieee80211 stack. Right now i have to go though this process to get my wifi back up.
If anyone reading this has any suggestions so as to were i don't have to keep doing this that would be great. My connection with this method is really slow. I hate to say this but it works fine in windows. So hopefully this works and if anyone else has any ideas or something to add to what I plan on doing would be great I hope i didn't bore anyone. I'm glad you guys are working on this too.
I tried the patch above and all seems well at first: matt@Darwin:~$ iwconfig lo no wireless extensions. Wmaster0 no wireless extensions. Wlan0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:' Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: Not-Associated Tx-Power=27 dBm Retry min limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr=2346 B Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0 Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0 eth0 no wireless extensions. Matt@Darwin:~$ ndiswrapper -l net8187b: driver installed device (0BDA:8187) present (alternate driver: r8187) I don't know why r8187 is listed as an alternate driver. I can't find such a driver anywhere and blacklisting it doesn't get rid of it. Aside from that, everything looks ok until I do this: matt@Darwin:~$ ndiswrapper -m module configuration already contains alias directive module configuration already contains alias directive module configuration already contains alias directive The message repeats three times, just as above.
I checked and only have one copy of ndiswrapper in my /etc/modules file. Needless to say, I'm not getting wireless. Are you guys running this on a 32- or 64-bit architecture? I'm glad you guys are working on this too. I tried the patch above and all seems well at first: matt@Darwin:~$ iwconfig lo no wireless extensions. Wmaster0 no wireless extensions.

Thanks You appear to be using a windows driver through ndiswrapper, not the native Linux driver that we've been discussing here.
My problem with Ndiswrapper is that I am using 64-bit Linux and the driver is win32 which means I have to switch back to 32 bit Linux, and I'm not willing to do that. I like going FAST!
