Since the code is working, it's likely to be in linux-wireless within days, which means in will be scheduled for Linux 2.6.27. 2.6.26 is in the RC phase now, but I've seen a similar patch for Broadcom going into 2.6.25 quite late in the game, so we can hope that 2.6.26 may have the rtl8187b fix too. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin
