Hi,

I am wondering if anyone has gotten the rtl8187 chip up and running. I was able to use ndiswrapper with the sys and inf files from my Windows install. When I modprobe ndiswrapper, I can see wlan0 under iwconfig. I can set the key, but I cannot change the SSID. There is no light at the computer, so I don't know if the "card" is turned on or not. I have tried turning on broadcast, and using no key, but lwlist wlan0 scan does not see the card.

Code:
my iwconfig results:

wlan0     IEEE 802.11g  ESSID:off/any  
          Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.412 GHz  Access Point: Not-Associated   
          Bit Rate:54 Mb/s   Tx-Power:20 dBm   Sensitivity=0/3  
          RTS thr:2432 B   Fragment thr:2432 B

From dmesg:

Code:

I am using FC6 i686
