Hi,
In my case I had this working doing the following before building the driver:
1- First I removed the following libraries (backing up first of course)  based on a comment by marc.milliien in http://forums.msiwind.net/post51751.html

sudo rm -rv /lib/modules/2.6.24-21-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rtl8187.ko
sudo rm -rv /lib/modules/2.6.24-21-generic/kernel/net/ieee80211
sudo rm -rv /lib/modules/2.6.24-21-generic/ubuntu/wireless/rtl8187-usb
sudo depmod

2- then I executed the procedure mentioned last by  Coffelius and
rebooted... I had the driver recognized and wireless this way

P.S. I'm using 2.6.24-21-generic as atested by command (sorry I'm kinda a newbie with linux kernel stuff)
fpereira at fpereira-laptop:~$ uname -a
Linux fpereira-laptop 2.6.24-21-generic #1 SMP Tue Oct 21 23:43:45 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux

Hope it helps anyone. It surely helped me :)

Cheers
Fernando
