I went to this site <A href="http://www.datanorth.net/%7Ecuervo/rtl8187b/" target=_blank>http://www.datanorth.net/~cuervo/rtl8187b/</A> for the driver, followed the instructions there but ran into a problem. On issuing the ./makedrv command, this happened: rm -fr *.mod.c *.mod *.o .*.cmd *.mod.* *.ko *.o *~ make -C /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-generic/build M=/home/gordon/rtl8187b-modified/ieee80211 CC=gcc modules make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-16-generic' scripts/Makefile.build:46: *** CFLAGS was changed in "/home/gordon/rtl8187b-modified/ieee80211/Makefile".
