Can you please try this ebuild?
I made the URL downloadable and removed the fetchrestriction.
Removed the superfluous src_compile. I use the linux-mod MODULESD generation functions, I added some docs.
I removed the init-script because users can add it to modules.autoload.d.

Patch for genstef ebuild

I'd tested the ebuild. It works like a charm.

Many thanx!

Well, I'm adding a patch for remove MY_PN, because r8187 and r${MY_PN} are more consistent, now.
Comment 8 tuXXer 2006-01-02 06:19:24 UTC
Maybe a hint for adding the following modules into modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 could be useful:

(For WEP and WPA encryption)
ieee80211_crypt-rtl

(WEP encryption)
ieee80211_crypt_wep-rtl

(WPA TKIP encryption)
ieee80211_crypt_tkip-rtl

(WPA CCMP encryption)
ieee80211_crypt_ccmp-rtl

(For the r8187 module)
ieee80211-rtl

(The module itself)
r8187
