[Bug 246141] Re: no support for realtek rtl8187se

[David Rando - Eversmann]

What i said to the realtek support is they had a more updated version of
the driver than the current listed here, and a driver compatible with
the 2.6.27, and they sent me this one.

Like a mate said here, what i did was compile it, and then copy all the .ko files to:
/lib/modules/2.6.27-7-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/

then:
depmod -a
modprobe rtl8180

After that, the driver comes to work every boot after the kernel load.

I hope the ubuntu kernel team integrate it somehow, or like mangouste06,
a dkms entry for this or anything (that scapes to my knowledge).

Anyway, this method works ok actually. I've noticed some slowdowns
downloading big files from internet (for instance, downloading an ubuntu
image directly to the laptop starts ok, and then slows down to 20-30
kb/s, with stalls from time to time), i had to move the download to
another computer to have it in a reasonable time.
