I don't know if I would bbother with that thing.... It's so bad when you
do compile it, it just segfaults half the time when your using it.. Plus
the wlan scripts the guy made up are kind of annoying if you ask me. I
appluad Realteks effort, but it just doesn't seem like they finished
making it.
Your probably better off using ndiswrapper and the windows drivers. I
think that is what most people do with that chipset, I stopped trying
and traded for an older version 2.5 with a prism chipset that just works.
