Hi everyone,
I have recently installed the 9.10 ubuntu version, but have problems recognizing my wirless usb device. First I take a look to the lsusb output, here it comes:
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0bda:8187 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8187 Wireless Adapter
Then I start getting the windows xp driver from the original cd and get to work with ndiswrapper, here are my steps:
>ndiswrapper -i Netrtuw.inf
>ndiswrapper -l
netrtuw : driver installed
device (0BDA:8187) present (alternate driver: rtl8187)
Oh!, then I'll try to remove that alternate driver ...
>modprobe -r rtl8187
>rmmod rtl8187
>lsmod | grep rtl8187
> lsmod | grep *8187
The last two, returned nothing, that looks fine.
>depmod -a
>modprobe ndiswrapper
>dmesg

Any ideas, please help, I don't know how to continue !
