Description Tom Lanyon 2006-10-24 18:32:57 UTC

linux 2.6.19-rc2 removes config.h which the rtl8187 module depends on, and hence the driver will not compile.

I've sent an email to the developer requesting he release a new version for the updated kernels, and will update this ticket if/when I hear back.
