>   Because I have an ARM board which run linux -v2.6.25.10,so I have to use  "compat-wireless-2.6-old.tar.bz2" packet to generate the "rtl8187.ko" .But the real problem is that I can't make it to get  "rtl8187.ko"(modules).And you say need other modules, So which modules I  needed?And how can I do?

Hmm,  you only have 18 modules, not the 50+ it should be. You also
make a mistake with your editing of the Makefile. (I think it is
common ettique to check for problems from self-inflicted issues like
that). I think compat-wireless won't build any modules your tree have
them built-in (because if you can't unload  the old one, there is no
point building new), so you *must* set your KBUILD/KLIB correctly, if
you choose to edit the makefile by hand. if you read the Makefile (as
you should, since you edited it), it mostly just do
        $(MAKE) -C $(KLIB_BUILD) M=$(PWD) modules
recursively down the directory. You could do "make -C <someplace>
M=<here> rtl8187.ko" inside drivers/net/wireless/ and see if a
rtl8187.ko .
but first, correct your editing of the Makefile.
